Default GMC's Answer to Raptor

Sounds like the Car & Driver folks weren't too impressed with GMC's new Sierra AT4. Very tepid reception.

The comments are the best part....

More like a competitor to the Ram Rebel. Don't know why C&D would even mentioned the Raptor in this article....

Duratrac tires...

Look they made the tow hooks red so theyre easy to see cuz theyll be used a lot getting towed out of the deep grass they park in.

i dont mind the tail gate thing...i think its over kill and the designer should have stopped half way but thats me.
I wish more thought would be put into the truck box/bed design - there is so much open dead space below box and on sides for storage capabilities. (on all trucks)

Also...if ford could build a mega cab type cab like dodge...I'd be all over that!

Those fog light openings look a little too small... The frontend looks enormous.

I like how the article mentions the gmc will do battle with the jeep also, what are these people smoking ?. The Chevy midsize offroader has a better chance to compete with the jeep and the raptor. The zr2 version can at least crawl and jump, not this fullsize beast. I hope ford bumps the bar even higher after seeing this crap from General motors.
