ANTAUS Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 LINK-Detroit News They want a unibody pick-up thats light (even though the Ridgeline as porky a 10yr old F-150). They want FWD and AWD (a 'la Ridgeline) but no need for towing or hauling. I can only think "Subaru Baja"...How are their sales...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take your pick. All dead. All horrible to look at and worthless as a truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleed Blue Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 My first thought was of that goofy thing they tried back in the early/mid 80's. I think it was the Dodge Rampage built off the Omni platform. Of course AWD was not the hot thing back then so they were FWD...............not the best solution for a truck. Maybe they offered a 4WD, I don't know. VW had a Rabbit based truck that was even uglier. Maybe with todays technology it would work, but if I needed a truck, it would be a TRUCK.
