I've seen a few of the Chev version of this, a C4500 crew done up as a pickup. At least one seemed to be some dufus using it as a daily driver to get the kids and go to the mall.

Go ahead & drive one. Just don't come down the streets with 3 ton load limits, don't take 3 spaces to park and don't whine about $3 gas or diesel.
