I like Mitchell's open rear. Obviously Signal, you have excellent design skills, nice work. But I think this last one looks too much like every other SUV out there right now. (Yes I know the xB isn't an SUV). But this design looks like some new Ford or Navigator, IMO. Maybe it's just the angle though, or just the way the wheels sit with the fenders. Cause I do see the xB in it too. OK now I'm rambling. Where can I see more of your artwork and designs though? Technically your work is superb.

Signal man, your stuff is crazy silly. It should illegal for you to use a computer. Excellant skills. I'm mad about that! (In a good way)

ha!
I guess it's better than "xb P.U."

How about "bb got back"..?
...the bBgB ?



Personally i think a mid engine layout would also be very interesting.
The mr 2 was such a great car that just never found it's niche.
If that platform could be cheaper, scion could have a new classic with this bbgb
In a mid engine layout, you could put a rack on top of the rear deck for more aerodynamic storage

but a sporty pick up like this could be so much fun
like a new, smaller el camino.
and once again scion would have little competition here.

thank for the

Thanks.

The Mr2 handled really well.
The mid engine design gave it a near 50/50 weight distribution.

But a truck would certainly be easier for scion to actually build.

the straight line acceleration would be awesome
0-60 in like 1 second.

but body roll could be a problem.

Depending on your technique, body roll will increase your overall mileage.
