I've always wanted a GMC Syclone... Looks like your common or garden yank POS pickup truck, but... GMC quoted 4.6 to 60, and a standing 13.4s 1/4 from a 4.3L V6 Turbo...mmmmm

lightning seems to look better, not sure about that crew cabin one though, doesnt even look as if kids would fit in the back of that judging by the size of the doors lol

not too sure on the cyclone, all bring back memories of the Sierra P100 with Cossie conversion though, now that would be cheaper fun!
