Possible GM Competition?

Seems weird to me that they would have waited this long if in fact they send this to production.. but from the sounds of it this truck will at the least be at SEMA.. but a little competition never hurt

Personally I think it looks a lot better than a stock silvy, minus the bling-bling wheels

No way it'll happen.

Not a big enough segment to be #2 in.

Raptor> Silverado Baja


Competition does make it better though.

I'll be at SEMA, I'll let you know about it. My gut says that the Raptor will remain in a class of one.

I think Chevy is in dire enough straits financially that you aren't going to see a niche vehicle like that make production.

You might get a lifted Dairy Queen cruiser from GM...but it won't have the extensive suspension mods of the Raptor.
