2010 GMC Terrain: You Write the Caption

2010_Terrain_1600_train.jpg

Vehicle Testing Director Dan Edmunds sent me this photo of our GMC Terrain near a trash heap. He suggested Planes, Trains, and Terrians.

What is your caption?

We'll post our favorite this afternoon.

"Hyundai is really beefing up their advertising these days, once billboards, then tv commercials, now trains!?"

One of these rides like it's on rails, the other is a Terrain.

We built the best SUV in the world, except it gets 10 MPG. Where should we put it?

Terrain kept a rollin' all night long.

More power than a locomotive./

Guess which one of them gets 436 mpg?

technetium99 says:

05:39 AM, 01/28/11

One of these has styling cues from a cardboard box, all flat planes and right angles; the other is a locomotive.

EMD vs GMC

mrryte says:

07:21 AM, 01/28/11

So that's where the Chevy designers got the inspiration for the Terrain's styling...

In another lame-brain marketing campaign, Chevy will attempt to test the capacity of its roof rails.

Chevy scraps plans to put a diesel in the Terrain.

At least everything in this picture gets better mileage than a Traverse.

technetium99 says:

07:33 AM, 01/28/11

The Terrain: the box the Santa Fe came in.

This Terrain can haul both passengers and freight.

ergsum says:

It's a Terrain, but not a low CO2 motive.

The Terrain design works better on a train.

This Santa Fe should have no trouble bypassing this Terrain.

Hyundai forgot to mention which Santa Fe it was bringing to the track for a comparo.

Choo Choo Charlie was an engineer,
He melted down some trash to make this truck right here.
He wanted speed and comfort and to have some fun,
so he stayed with cars on rails that could get the job done!
