Fugly. Stupid idea, IMO. Why waste precious poor fuel economy on a useless ute?

But IMO the G8 looks just like the ugly Vibe, too, and the rear end is boring. The V8 RWD factor is great and all, but the Holden looks a LOT better than that car.

I have seen it. And much like the G8.. . . Pontiac screwed up the looks that Holden had locked down. Hopefully Chevy releases a better looking alternative that is a flashback to the El Camino.

I think the "sport truck" and the G8 look pretty cool. I can't wait to see them on the street.

Wait till you guys see the small GM trucks coming with the 5.3 later this year or next. The Colorado was one of them, and I think the GMC verison is another.

Nothing wrong with the new sport truck idea. Considering they're going to be built, I really think it's the closest thing to a light-weight, rwd, two door G8.

Ya they should have changed the front and rear fascia and release it as a El Camino.
