I love the old Rampage, but I laughed out loud when I saw this ridiculous looking thing. The same styling school drop-outs who designed the new Ram trucks were obviously involved. THere is zero continuity between the front and the back, the GM front end makes me gag.

up THIS^^^

The styling crap coming out for the past 20 years is FUGLY!!!
Ford liked the 1978 Dodge Omni 024 so much they copied it and made the 1979 Mustang in 5/4 scale. Almost exact same styling.

No doubt. It’s just a submitted design. Saying that however, a sporty midsize pickup would be nice. I much prefer a “beefy” looking truck vs some of these things now. I liked how the 80s and 90s trucks sat on 15x10 wheels and 60 series tires.

They should call it the Road Rage instead of Rampage. Then it will sell better.

That instrument panel is funny. I understand where the guy was coming from but it is so bad it takes away from the rest of the build.

One of my two is on the road. It is a Shelby Version 2.2 5 speed, 3.56:1. But was crash damaged so they put a standard 84 frontend on and repainted. I have converted it to 5 on 100mm and BIG MiniVan brakes.
it has 215/60 15's on Shelby pumpers.

Second one is also a 84 auto and a Glasstight canopy. This one is getting a 5.9 Stroker 408/410 with A500 and a 8 3/4 in the rear soon. Firewall will move back 6 inches.
