I’d like to have one of those to crush Priuses in parking lots. Tell the owners, “it’s OK, it’s an electric.”

“...the truck will also be used to evaluate stealth operations for near-silent surveillance.”

I take it Diesel won’t be an option then.

Army testing, eh? One good hit in the hydrogen tank, and....

And don’t forget the poor bastard driving the hydrogen truck in a war zone.....

If it’s electric, why that big hump on the hood as well as air intake grille?

Looks like it would have an LS-9 under there...

To each his own, but for my liking, I was really saddened when I saw the body style of the new Colorado. This doesn’t hide it very well, so I won’t ooh and aah.

Reminds me of a bug. Insect, not VW.

It does not look like it is shaped to deflect at least some of the force from a nearby explosion.

It’s perfect for tearing up the wilderness in an environmentally responsible way!

The article states: “And, it has red tow hooks for ‘aggressive pulling’.”

Which makes me wonder, if it had Olive Drab tow hooks, it could not accomplish “aggressive pulling?”

I don’t care how care how quiet the engine might be, any truck with big tires and aggressive tread is going to produce a great deal of tire noise. You wouldn’t be sneaking up on anybody.
