A Chevy SSR in yellow was in the parking lot and so I had to take a picture. What a strange vehicle these always are. Especially for what they cost originally! Always makes me smile though so I always enjoy odball vehicles that seem like nonsense.

I remember being really excited by the concept vehicle. I was thinking it would be lower to the ground, like a 50s style el camino. Super underwhelmed when I saw one in person.

My boss at my previous job had one of these. He tried to tell me that it was the most powerful production vehicle ever made. I already knew I was on my way out of that job so I had no problem informing him how wrong he was. I do think these are delightfully unique, but I didn’t have any patience  for that BS.

Out of all the early 2000's retro shit, I think this is my favorite. I remember having the dealers training dvd for this and it was wild seeing all the neat features. The later 6.0/6 speed combos were pretty cool.

I still love them despite their ridiculousness. My dad actually looked for one for a while, but apparently he HAD to have a yellow one or he wasn’t interested. Which is weird because his last 5 vehicles have been red. He couldn’t find a yellow one so he bought a Silverado.

I haven’t seen too many in the real world. I remember seeing one in the mid  2000s while in high school, must have been a new car then. It was someone local because I had seen it often on the way to school and was always mesmerized by the weird looking thing. Have not really seen more than 1 or 2 of them in the wild since then, so it was definitely a sight to behold.
