Good God! that think is ugly. It's like that 747 with the modified shuttle center-tank carying fuselage, it's just not natural.

Re: The Sandman is back

I finally see the point to this Aussie "El Camino." As a post-modern sedan delivery, with muscle car power, it's a great idea. Reason enough for outdoor types to stay away from the loathsome Jeep Wrangler. Now, if they could only give the new "1 Tonne" Holden the same treatment.

It's a pity we're still stuck with the Monaro/GTO here in NA. Since the GTO isn't exactly going to be the "last of the V8 interceptors," we should at least have a chance to buy Mad Max's personal ride.

Oh well, at least we can dream about the Sandman.

Maybe this is a preview of GM's next sport minivans?
