This Exotic Tridon Pickup Truck is for individuals that want to be the only one that has anything like it! It commands attention EVERY where you go. I do mean this. You cannot go anywhere without someone wanting to ask you about it, look it over, etc. Russell Knudson, of Knudson Automotives and Rage Vehicles in Omaha, Nebraska designed and hand molded this truck. This is not a cheap kit, anywhere I take it, auto body professionals are impressed with the quality of the hand molded distinctive features of the Triton. I have a certificate of authenticity signed by Russel Knudson and a plack that goes with the truck. He only made 4 or 5 pickup trucks in his lineup of exotic vehicles, each one having it's own unique characteristics. On speaking with Russell, he told me that one was wrecked in Texas and that mine was the only one that he knew the current location of. He told me that he could never make another one just like it because when he relocated into another building the mold broke. You can read more about his Exotic vehicles online, look up The History of Rage Vehicles, you will see a picture of this truck in the background when he first designed the Tridon. He started by putting a kicker cap on it (as pictured) and decided to leave it off and put the spoiler around the bed instead. The white truck pictured at History of Rage is THIS exact truck before the spoiler system was added. He only made one white truck. After we told him we had it, he came to Kentucky to see it again, bringing the certificate of authenticity with him and hand delivered it.
First, how does it run? Excellent, transmission shifts good. Drives great, rides VERY comfortably. Only has 46,274 miles on it. All lights, air, cruise, work great. Interior is beautiful two tone blue cloth specially done. Has rear bench seat. Passenger seat folds up for easy access to back seat. Every owner has tried to keep this as original as possible. Headliner is starting to separate, and foam in driver's seat edge is just beginning to break down but the fabric is still in excellent condition. Local shop said $75.00 to do seat, and $150.00 to do headliner.
Exterior is White, very shiney, looks great but does have some imperfections. Scratch but no dents or cracks. This is a 1990 model which will have some flaws. It has 24" WIDE rear tires, NOT a dually. Special hand molded exterior molds, special hand molded hood, fender, fender skirts, spoiler. Company logo on front grill. The back of the tail gate originally had a large Tridon sticker which had been removed by a previous owner. Russell Knudson has given permission to have another one made if I wanted one. This truck is SUPER NICE and I cannot stress too much how this turns heads everywhere we go. If you have any questions please call me, Mitch, at 859-329-1167. If I do not answer, please leave a message and I WILL call you back.

Read This: Auto Extremist advocates for Corvette as brand with multiple models [w/poll]
Fri, 25 Jan 2013The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette really grinds Peter De Lorenzo's gears. Or, more accurately, the self-anointed Auto Extremist has an issue with what he sees as mismanagement of the legendary sports car by General Motors executives. In a new editorial on his website, De Lorenzo argues it's time to split Corvette off from Chevrolet to create an all-new brand, complete with a model range with at least three new takes on the sports car. Capable of fully leveraging the successes of the Corvette Racing program and brandishing the full might of GM's technical prowess, the Corvette brand would theoretically give Porsche something to sweat over.
Sure, that sounds like a party, but given GM's troubled track record when it comes to launching (let alone managing) brands, we say that's slippery slope that could just as easily end with the whole Corvette franchise in the scrap bin. Either way, the notion is certainly an interesting one. Head over to Auto Extremist to take in the full editorial, and then let us know what you think in Comments. Should GM split off its most storied nameplate?

Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard
Tue, 19 Mar 2013Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.
General Motors shaking up its marketing... again
Wed, 13 Mar 2013One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")
