IMO.. Ford Dodge and GM did an ok job on the muscle cars from the past look (Mustang, Camaro, Challenger). They seem to be popular, so... I say, come out with a 70's-80's looking (Bronco, Ram, K5) type look and see how it does. I know I would be first in line to get one of these, All other SUV's suck.
The concept isn't the worst thing I've seen, but I personally would rather drive my blazer or 93 2500.
Agreed! My town is full of these "go green" people. Priuses are abound. I'm sick of it. Not many people have SUV's or trucks, at least locals. My neighbor does have a 1977 challenger though.

I have to say the new challengers are really nice and kept the style of the old one. Not disappointed. Camaro? The back end looks to fat. lol

Right on, those guys did an awesome job with the Challenger, best of the three no doubt. Agree about the camaro with the fat butt, I also think it would look better if the front end wasn't so pointy. Still a great looking car though.

As far as the whole "go green" kick. I think its smart to harness the suns power as much as the next fellow, but As far as spending into the millions/billions for a car that no one wants? Thats just insanity!

I know, lol. Like these..



Really? Reealy? What ever. People buy them.

As for harnessing the sun's power, that's cool and all but it's not very dependable. And most of these "green" cars take electric, which'll cost just as much as gas. lol

Well.. since this is Chevy owners bitching about Chevy styling, maybe I ought to interject my opinion on their frequency of breakdown and repair and that Fords are generally more reliable.

If you catch my meaning, Buck-O!
