The Speedway truck is horrid, but the Colorado SS is by far the nicest truck Ive seen since I first layed eyes on the 1992 GMC Typhoon.

Hmm, I really like that Durango! Why exactly are they calling it a durango as opposed to a Dakota?

I assume the speed way truck is a NASCAR truck wanna be?

Durango is cool, but I wondered why it wasn't called Dakota too.

Colorado SS is by far the nicest (and the best with a chance for production)

Ya, but the Silverado SS concept looked allot better than the real thing too and I'll bet the production durango doesn't look that good.

I agree. I was never a fan of the SSR's looks, and that still hasn't changed regardless of the powertrain upgrades under the skin. Silverado concept is allright at best imo, but the Colorado SS was VERY nice.

Re: Dodge-Chevy SEMA comparo....

That Silverado "Speedway" truck is probably bred for a specific theme (like the wrecker and emergency trucks at Indy Motor Speedway each year, for example). Or maybe it was meant to evoke the Craftsman Truck NASCAR series? Either way, I agree it doesn't do much for me.

But that concept Colorado SS with the LS2 makes that Orange Dakota (durango? ) look like a Barbie toy. IMO.

Both are supporting around 425hp and a host of suspension, wheel, brakes, interior, and exterior modifications.

Take the spoiler off the Corvette, and that's one sweet looking car. I'm sure the wing is functional, but it still looks too bolted on.
