Hmm someone tell team HSV that Dodge doesn't start with H. However, Hyundai does and this concept vehicle would suite the HSV buyer profile quite nicely.

Is it 2016 yet?

Well good to see HSV surviving in some form...
Plus there are those repeated rumors of some sports car/coupe for the Aus market.

It's April 2015.....

And what does that have to do with a funky looking truck?
If that was the next Fpv/GT there'd be people turning in their graves and protestors picketing about the dilution of the breed. And if hsv want to survive they'll have to come up with something good.....hopefully better then a front wheel drive Chinese import

I believe they are also recruiting assemblers so maybe for this truck project.

Let's let HSV and dodge dip their toes first hey. We certainly aren't exactly a big truck loving nation. And at 120k I'd say there won't be much of a market.

Uh I have to disagree with you there rangers and hilux are one of the top selling family cars these days I see more more of these at kid's sport events than I did cruiser's or patrol's 10+ years ago people are starting to get into these things more and more for there versatility and the new models are well refined vehicles
