It's not a bad idea for a mail delivery or similar vehicle. Just not a Blazer.

I'm seeing the offspring of a three-way between a Lumina APV, Astro van, and pickup.

WTF!!!
K.I.T.T. and Michael would’ve been horrified.

It could have been a little worse. But it could have been so much better. It could have been a Colorado based body on frame real SUV to stand up to Jeeps, Toyotas and the much hyped Ford Bronco. Instead it's just a badge on another corporate blob. GM instead of doing what they did with the Camaro they decided to pull a 2001 Monte Carlo. The successful turd that that was.

I like the 4 wheel steering there.
I kinda like it. In a weird Total Recall kind of way.

I agree, total recall for sure! It would been a good courier. Dare I say it still looks more interesting than the new blazer?

I remember seeing that as a kid and thinking it was totally awesome. Would still be pretty cool to have.

i have to be honest:

Not only do i dig the concept vehicle---let's not judge a car by it's looks...... , if i did not need towing/hauling capability, then i would be open to, even excited about, getting a new blazer or traverse/acadia.

Yes, i DO think that something should be built on the current Colorado chassis as an SUV.

Wow my buddy and I had a hour long conversation about this yesterday.

You’re telling me that with the success of the Colorado, the sales and popularity of vehicles like the Jeep, the Toyota TRD stuff and even the hype of the bronco, that there’s no market for a real trail worthy gm midsize suv, possibly with a removable top?

Ahh, the cocaine years! Lol
