Don't be a "hater", Paul. Ill conceived SUV's need love too...
Actually the Ford F250 based
Studebaker XUV was first shown at the Chicago show
last February, which led to GM getting its corporate, Hummer-sized shorts in a knot and filing a
trademark infringement lawsuit against the current owners (this week, anyway) of the Avanti trade name. As I recall, they made some minor changes to the hood latches and windshield angle and ultimately settled with GM. Now buyers will surely be forming a line with their $75K checks at their nearest Studie dealer, wherever that may be...
I agree that the great
Raymond Loewy would be amused (at best) by all of this.
