A cartoon pickup truck, for impressing cartoon ditchpigs at the beach.

Like the idea, but it's too damn ugly.

Hard pass. I bought a truck because it adds a few inches below the belt, not because I need one anymore than a couple Home Depot runs a year. I'm afraid that this truck won't add any length and girth where I need it, and I need all the help I can get.

They're gonna fail, 95%. They are like 5 companies with similar stuff in production already.

Just a modern version of the mini cab over trucks guys use as deer camp rigs. That’s about all I’d consider it for.

Fully enclosing it and removing the back seats would turn it into killer city based delivery/work van.

Did they make it by putting an Avalanche on puberty blockers?

Hey I've got an idea!


Yeah?


Let's make a vehicle who's market is already fringy as shite but make it look as ugly as possible.


Yeah! Like a toddler fisher price toy?

Exactly!

But make sure we set the base price at 50 grand.

The truck looks like it has Down’s syndrome.

So, they'll hold $152 of mine until they're bankrupt and I may or may not get it back? Cool.

Vaporware.

Also, no crumple zone on front, won't pass in the US.

A truck with good leg room and a 6+ foot bed is all I need

If you want an ugly truck that costs less, just get a Santa Cruz.

but suffice it to say we've all seen trucks that are infinitely overbuilt for how their owners actually use them.


The owners of those "overbuilt" trucks are buying them because they're overbuilt, not because they necessarily need a giant jacked up 4X4. They're obviously compensating for something. If a truck company doesn't understand that, they will never be successful.
