But why? There are much better ways to go fast, and much better ways to haul stuff. There are better ways to look good AND haul stuff (SRT and Lightning).
If Javelin doesn't like it you just KNOW something is wrong with it.

He should have started with one of these

He just made a oversize GTO with a mini truck bed grafted to it's rear end.

In reply to DrBoost:

That was a "I think I need new pants from the awesomeness eeek", not an "I don't like it, run away eeek".

How could anyone hate the Utes? (My Alma Mater)

Seriously though, I think it's a bit much....

Maybe. But you can't haul 4 people in a Lightning, unless you are redneck people hauling in back. Have you dealt with the "POS" Viper clutch that wears out in 10k in the SRT's???

I think I would take the 4dr GTO trucklet and drive it with my mullet flowing freely.

I like utes a lot but that one just doesn't really work.

Too many doors for a truck bed, Now if it was a wagon that would be the badassness that it really needs to be!!

Cooler as a wagon, Oh My Yes.

But cool enough as a ute. I'd rock it like Herbie Hancock.

Yeah, go ahead and rub it in for those of us with male pattern baldness...
Actually, if I was bald on top and grew my hair long in the back, could I call it a bullet??

You guys are crazy. I'm still convinced that nobody on this board actually likes UTE's. I think you all just got together on Skype one day and decided to punk me.
