Yes I would, especially if there will be a GXP version of the ST. I use my '76 for various light hauling chores. I'd love to have a reliable, new Ute that could also be a daily driver that also has the handling characteristics of a car not a truck. I don't need a truck, I don't want a truck. I'm never going to haul a travel trailer/large boat/etc. I hate the handling characteristics of trucks. On top of that they are hard on gas.
As for the G8 GXP it is also a go as Nocturn says. I am disappointed that they state the LS3 has only 402 HP. Hell the LS2 had 400 and it was only 6.0 liters vs. 6.2 for the LS3. I'm hoping that is preliminary BS data.

I don't understand the bowtie fanboys though, it is like they have to have a copy of every single thing that comes out.

Agreed. I think it is an inadequency issue.

I was gagging at the Ute. I simply canNOT understand how any could find that car even remotely attractive. I have a '94 Corrola that I don't think I'd trade for it, even up, if I had to keep it and drive it. lol.

There is the point. I'd rather stab myself in the leg than even have to look at a Corolla. Different strokes for different folks.

Yep I liked the old VZ Ute as well. I think the VE Ute (this newest one) looks better though. That last pic is just wrong. :barf:
Thanks for reminding me though.
