    i want to see the video of the first time they try to jump that fugger. that heavy ass duracrap will make it nose dive quicker than sh!t. and on top of that its gonna have a slower spool up time than the 6.2 just because its a diesel. it looks pretty good though but its just a concept vehicle right now. if it even goes through, ford will already have the next industry-leading breakthrough out by the time GM gets this one to the showroom

    the grill is gay and i don't like that skid plate that goes from the grill down
    but other than that i don't think it is too ugly.

    I personally think its pretty sweet. Sure it's not a ford, but it's still cool

    the over all look of the truck is a concept in itself..i like the style but i cant figure why they put that much into what is already a gas guzzeling company....if they want to compete with the raptor or any offroad capable vehicle for that mater they should look to lightning the overall wieght of it and get rid of the diesle and go to a mid range v8 to get the power to wreight ratio and drop down to just a standard single cab design...overall i think its a nice look...but for all practical uses its simply just not practical at all....

    yea, the last time i checked the raptor has a bed and is able to haul stuff in it, and gets decent gas milage for what it is. you dont have to live by a desert to have a raptor.

    I agree PBJ, the raptor isnt practical if you dont live near a desert.
