AWD is nice to have in a light pickup no matter where you're at. The wet weather is actually the best time to have AWD in a daily driver around here as our winters are not terrible most of the time. When it's wet out and you have to get moving quick AWD is nice.

They took the V8 option off the build page for now. The V8 will only be offered in Extended and Crew cab trucks. 4wd is a definate and maybe a 2wd will be available.

This is all just going off of info found on the net and posted by people who seem to be close to the project.

Cody - Yes, I would like one.

The problem is I have been ready to get rid of my current truck for a while now. The blower is off, the truck is slow and I want to move on. Then I hear news that FINALLY GM, after like 1000yrs or so it seems , is going to put a V8 in a compact pickup......who ever thought that would happen.
