In fact, I'm pretty sure they tried to die on that same hill for the current Camaro on the same reasoning. "People who actually buy these cars love how the current Camaro looked and they loved how the imperceptibly different all new Camaro looked, so we even carried over the problems of the previous car for authenticity."
THIS! On my way to a job site and saw what I thought was indeed a really big Triton. Off white dual cab Silverado.This design somehow does remind me of another pickup truck that's small and mostly just made specifically for ASEAN countries.
The fascia of the 2019 Silverado actually looks decent with the standard grill but when they put on the ones that have 'CHEVROLET' embossed on that part, I became disappointed on how it turned out to be and finally grasped how everybody felt about it.
No. I drive with my phone in my pocket. I did scramble to take it out for some Porsche photos recently( i had to. Don't often see a 356 coupe driving around
). It's weird because I can't tell sometimes. I see so many new kei cars, pick up trucks, exotic cars in moving traffic going the opposite ways. Many at intersections and there's no way I can take a photo so, I don't bother to keep my phone out. I know the rules are "pics or it didn't happen", but that's the way it is.

Anyway, at the rate I'm seeing these trucks, I'll get one on my phone, eventually.
They remind me of tonka trucks. I think auto manufacturers (and consumers) have gotten in the rut of thinking that conservative car design is ‘boring’, and that the only way to make a car sell is to make it look exciting and aggressive. For cars, everything is slathered with gills and vents and wings to make even the most staid family car look like it’s about to turn laps at the Nurburgring. Meanwhile every truck/4x4 is made to look like a big industrial vehicle to appeal to the inner children who want something that looks like it belongs in a primary school sandpit. End result is car design has devolved into an arms race of ‘who can make the most ostentatious car possible’.
A couple weeks ago I mentioned something in the Opinions section about "everybody is an authoritarian". Something like that. Well, the car design world is further evidence that aggression is something that most people are attracted to, especially cars aimed at male audiences. It's like the entire country is one big giant football locker room and everybody is having a truck measuring contest. If it's not mean, it's not cool, and that's why trucks sell like hotcakes and the Super Bowl has so many views despite being 90% downtime. Americans love aggression.
Fugly lmao
Old post I know but I seen some of these "exclusive models" on the road. In general, Single cab short bed GM trucks seems to be very popular in the Gulf States especially in Saudia and Kuwait. That being said, it's mostly the LT/SLE 5.3 1500 that dominate the roads.
MUCH better design IMO. I dig it
