Would You Trade Your Camaro For A Truck?
I've seen a few people on here done it. And recently one of my friends traded his Crystal red Camaro SS for a Jeep Wrangler. He needed something bigger for the kids. And seeing the Camaro is two doors he constantly would have to make double trips and burn extra gas picking up the kids back and forth. So he decided to get one so he can go out with the family and ended up spending around $50,000 out the dealership after customizing it to his taste.
It's one similar to this just with more add ons. |

If I traded a 5th gen SS it certainly wouldn't be to a huge step down like a Wrangler or any Jeep for that matter. A Silverado or Sierra, or maybe a GMC Acadia. However I could never trade my Camaro period!!

I would if something life changing came up but not just on a whim. Like if I had a kid, I would because a Camaro is just super impractical if you have kids, but otherwise no way. But jeeps are bad ass I was so close to getting one, and I decided on the Camaro instead

Nope.. I traded a Jeep Grand Cherokee for the Camaro. A couple months ago, we traded our 2001 Jeep Wrangler for a 2006 Dodge Charger SRT8.
I'm now going to be working on my 1995 Wrangler to get it into sell-able condition, so I can get mods for the Camaro. I've already changed my forum name on here from JEEPFREEKSCOTTY.

Hell no! I have no use for a truck at all, and I don't much care to drive something any bigger than the Camaro, much less a full size truck (I don't consider the little trucklets to be trucks). Combine that with poor handling, poor ride, and poor fuel economy, and it makes no sense for me.

...but I'm not a truck guy. I can see someone doing it if they loved a certain truck.

I plan on buying a truck in a couple years once my camaro is paid for. Reason why I didn't get a SS.

I doubt it. I'm not a truck person, unless it screams extreme performance, like the Ram SRT-10 or Raptor.
