Default Dodge Rampage Concept Truck

Not sure if anyone's seen this, but if I were a "truck guy", this would be my choice.
Go to Dodge.com and click the Auto Shows tab at the bottom. Then scroll through the vehicles from the auto show floor until you get to the Rampage. http://www.dodge.com/en/autoshow/
Aside from the nasty "Lincoln-Mercuryesque" enormous tail lights, this is one heck of a cool truck.
I love the stowable seating.

What do you folks think?

I am not sure, but I am with you on how all the seats are stowed.

My opinion is that there are some good ideas with this truck, but I am concerned that it would be a flop. The first problem is that it is a 5.7L Hemi powered FWD truck. That would have a very serious case of torque-steer, plus why would people who want a truck want FWD in the first place? The next problem would be the lack of interest in modern day El Caminos. The Chevrolet SSR and Subaru Baja were flops so I doubt that bringing these back after compact and mid-sized trucks have already taken this marketplace, not to mention how the first Rampage was a flop so I doubt that trying this again will work. The Stow 'N Go seats should be used in other models such as their trucks.
