It would be nicer if they gave it a Sy/Ty appearance treatment but, I think that is aimed at the Performance SUV buyers. That's OK though as long as they keep one or two turbos on it the rest can be taken care of. Most of the time factory FI vehicles don't take much to get more power out of. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

BUT like Greg I am a pessimist when it comes to GM releasing any concept for production that the public might actually like. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

Of course GM won't do it because it would be the right thing to do. Look at past examples like the Silverado SS with a 6.0 L and 500-600 hp. That would have been a seller. Nope, once again GM gets our hopes up to shoot'em down. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" />

SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!GM will probably relase a toned down single turbo if it was to happen though.

GM needs to put something out there that's kinda ballsy, especially if F.O.R.D. puts out that concept Lightning ( <img border="0" alt="[barf]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_barf.gif" /> ) they are showing off.
