    Hi Luke!!
    I was going to say hi again. Sorry that the mods are being pinheads. I’ll have catch up with you soon to talk about your model 3.

    This truck really seems pointless to me. With all this size and capability -- comes cost.
    If this truck cost the same price as the Silverado -- then why bother building it?

    GM missed the boat to build a "true" compact truck. This screams a repeat of the last
    generation of the Dodge Dakota IMO -- which was so close in size and capability to the
    Ram.... it too was a pointless exercise and a failure.

    What they should have built was an S-10 size truck in regular and extended cabs.
    Priceed for around what a Cruze sells for and call it a day. The closer we get to
    release date -- the more this truck seems like another misfire.

    Envoy,
    IIRC I discussed it with a couple of mods. This has been an issue for a while, GMI policy for whatever reason frowns on name changes. The truly responsible party was IROCNROL1 who, before he went into low-activity mode, did some serious lobbying with one of the mods, possibly MIKMAK, who I think is one of the top mods here.
    I'd fly it by a mod, ask for the policy, and push push push. I think they'll bend on one change, they probably don't want folks to be bugging them every two weeks for a name change, but that's speculation. I'm not privvy to the inner workings of modland.
    I do know t-rex has commented that some major changes have happened at the top, and things have loosened up considerably.
    There was one mod who'd bug me every time I mentioned Thomas Jefferson, sqalking about politics politics. He actually gigged me for putting in a Founders Statement in my sig.
    Good luck. What do you want your new name to be?
