    I would have to test drive it check out the functionality of it.
    It does look a lot like the Ridgeline.

    It seems like it would be pretty functional. More efficient and more cargo area than a Tacoma. Off road guys might find some utility in the short wheelbase also. People just aren't digging the way it looks. I'm not crazy about it but with minor changes I think it could look decent. Maybe OD green paint, black wheels, small lift, tinted windows. I've seen a ridgeline set up like that and it looked worlds better than a stock ridgeline.

    Fuck yes, then I would turn it into a Warthog from Halo since it looks close enough.

    That truck looks retarded, but on the other concept cars, they have that FT-HS, that is a pretty nasty lookin car, and the PM looks kinda cool. The only truck that that style of flared bed? I guess? is the Escalade EXT, and if you buy that, then I doubt you're gonna be taking it off road.

    Yes! I'd definitely buy it! Where can I get one??

    ...is what Soccer Mom of 2.3 would say. Something like that, the most offroad it would see would be the camp sites @ the nearby state park. :puke:

    Yes, only if it came with a turbo diesel or a V6. I think its sexy and futuristic and whether anyone likes it or not this IS where cars and trucks are headed. Plus if they threw a turbo diesel in there it would be a bad bad bitch. BUT it would never replace a Taco for me.

    Honestly Kinda like the looks. Whether i drove one or not would depend on the chassis underneath. If it was like a ridgeline and rollin on the minivan chassis no way in hell i would buy it. If it was rocking a Tacoma 4x4 Chassis I would buy it.
