1. G8 sales are lower than expected
2. Truck sales are lower than industry average
3. Build G8 sport truck
4. ????
5. Profit

GM couldn't figure out a way to fill in step 4, so they didn't bother with step 3. Too bad really, they figured a G8 ST GT would have been faster than the GT sedan. And would have looked really cool too.

I thought it was cool, but if I had to choose between it and a G8. I would have definitely been driving home in a sedan.

Just the cold hard truth.
