Agree. Besides the Corvette, I don't find anything GM builds today to be interesting.

Mechanically the Camaro is very interesting, but everything else with the car....well....

Well said.

As a child of the 80's I think Dodge needs to bring back the Little Red Express truck.

I remember those. Also remember the Dude truck

The Dude...

Found this picture years ago and have always wanted to share it...

I've always been a big fan of Don Knotts movies and when I found this picture I had no idea Don Knotts was associated with any kind of specialty truck like this and I've never seen one in this trim package before.

I'm not sure who owns the rights to AMC's portfolio, but I think a Gremlin or Pacer would make a great electric commuter car.

Or with gas engines. I loved those cars. Would love to have one now. Didn't the Gremlin come with a big block option?

From a sports car perspective the Pantera's need to comeback.

They may fall apart while you look at them, but they are stunning to look at.

:laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

:bolt: :dig:

GM completely dropped the ball with the new Blazer. Like they really needed another meh SUV.

A hardcore Chevy guy I work with was so upset when they released the new Blazer I almost felt sad for him... Almost

Fj Cruiser was the comeback of the FJ40. But I would love to see an update with some kind of Toyota hybrid poweplant.

As far as I’m concerned:
This was the only good Bronco.

Ok Boomer.....I have no idea who that is.

From the factory, no, best you could do was a 304ci V8.

AMC never had a big block. However, AMC did a "Yenko" and allowed a dealer to do a run of Gremlins with the 401ci V8 (bored and stroked 304).

That said, I've seen Gremlins with big blocks at car shows/meets ... 427's and 454's.

I saw a Gremlin with a NY state plate that read: ERICS LUV years ago. My initial thought was, "Some people will love anything"

Those cars were God-Awful.

For all the folks interested in the new Bronco and listen to podcasts, look up the July 15 episode of Spikes Car Radio. The host has a really good interview with guy who lead the development of the new Bronco and talks about some of interesting features of the vehicle.

The interview is the second half of the podcast and you'll probably want to fast forward through the first half to get to the good stuff. The podcast can be hit-or-miss depending on the topics and special guests, and last week the first half is a miss and the last half is a hit.

This Stroppe Bronco rendering is quickly changing my thoughts on color. May order one in Oxford White and have it wrapped like this.

Yeah well that's just his DD, he's always got a "toy" of some kind too, can't wait to see which of the 5-20 he considers to be in his driveway the next time I'm down there

I am thinking of picking up a second vehicle since seeing vet in real life dashed my C8 dreams. after seeing a juiced up gladiator (was not a fan of it stock) was thinking that might be it. Mught have to wait to check out the Bronco. It is a nice looking vehicle

Either one would end up like this. Can’t wait to see what the after market brings for the Bronco.

I exaggerated a bit but he's narrowed down his "toy car" list a bit. When he sees this he can comment on what's on that list
