TTAC Photochops: Vipette, Challamaro and Durangahoe

With the GM – Chrysler merger dominating the automotive headlines, one of TTAC’s Best and Brightest suggested a little photochop action. And so I prepared a hypothetical General Mopar line-up. You can see here the Vipette, a lethal blend of venom and muscle powered by an exclusive V9 engine. Did you find yourself in difficulty choosing between the new Challenger and the new Camaro? Well, despair no more. The Challamaro is here to please all pony car fans. Are you tormented by uncertainty as you canʼt figure out whether the Chevy Tahoe or the Dodge Durango will leave the market first? We figured out a sure answer here, as weʼve also merged the two into one truck. Please note that these renderings were intended as funny-bone-appealing in a time of uncertainty. They were not meant to be good-looking or realistic. I apologize to all of the fans that can see here dismembered parts of their beloved vehicles. However, I have to admit this was pure fun for me.

    How about a "Sebralt" (sounds slightly better than the alternative "Cobring"), that would be a car so ugly even it's mother would disown it. Of course the HHR and PT-Cruiser could merge without anybody noticing any difference.

    $10,000 cash back and 0% financing on the all-new 2010 Chevler Ramerado!

  • MaintenanceCosts It's going to have to go downmarket a bit not to step on the Land Cruiser's toes.
  • Lorenzo Since EVs don't come in for oil changes, their owners don't have their tires rotated regularly, something the dealers would have done. That's the biggest reason they need to buy a new set of tires sooner, not that EVs wear out tires appreciably faster.
  • THX1136 Always liked the Mustang though I've never owned one. I remember my 13 yo self grabbing some Ford literature that Oct which included the brochure for the Mustang. Using my youthful imagination I traced the 'centerfold' photo of the car AND extending the roof line back to turn it into a small wagon version. At the time I thought it would be a cool variant to offer. What was I thinking?!
  • GregLocock That's a bodge, not a solution. Your diff now has bits of broken off metal floating around in it.
  • The Oracle Well, we’re 3-4 years in with the Telluride and right around the time the long term durability issues start to really take hold. This is sad.
