Same. But that's the FCA way of doing things, shove as much HP into a car as possible for bragging rights and to appeal to enthusiasts, practicality be damned. The ZR2 gets crapped on for being just a midsize truck with only a V6 but it's a good size and has good power for actual off road applications. I'm assuming I'll be working a ton of crashes involving TRXs with owners who had no idea how to control all that power.

I certainly foresee GM taking a 2-tiered approach with the ZRX. I see an NA version and a SC'd version. I say this since, earlier this year, we found out that GM was engineering an LT4 for truck/SUV use. Having a cheaper NA version (~$50's) and a SC'd version (~$60's-70's) would be very beneficial in terms of appealing to a broader market and thus, producing more sales.
Produce a top-tier product and have it undercut both Ford and FCA in terms of price.

I guess cause off road trucks are all the rage these days.

I guess GM's sharing some of their designers' work now on Instagram. Some insight into early design work for current and future products.

I wish they'd make a smaller version of that tailgate for the Colorado
