That doesn't look like a truck to me.

From the GM press release:

"If brought to market, the Granite would be the smallest GMC ever – but has been optimized to feel much larger."
The bright boys at GM learned 0bama double-speak real fast.

My problem with GM: crossoveritis. Cars should be functional and ideally look the part. Trucks should be tough, simple to repair and able to haul stuff. Urban cars should offer good safety and interior space in a compact package. That's why a VW Golf or a Ford Focus is so popular in Europe. A truck is quite useless in the city and a Focus isn't the right car for a farm. That's also why an Escalade is terrible car and a a Range Rover is a great car. An Escalade looks good in a Hip Hop Video. A Range Rover looks good, i.e. works off road. If I just want presence, I'd go for an S-Class, because it's the real deal.

Cars should be the real deal, not pretend to be something they're not. That's also why I find station wagons great. Because they're not fake. But who am I with my non-streamlined opinion?
