:confused:confused:confusedIs the SSR a Truck? Or Is it a Roadster?:confused:confused:confused

I don’t want to get hanged up on semantics, but I know if my SSR could talk, it would object at being called a Truck, and it would claim to be a Roadster….

road•ster
–noun
1. An open automobile having a single seat in the front for two or three people and a rumble seat or luggage compartment in the back.

truck
–noun
1. any of various forms of vehicle for carrying goods and materials, usually consisting of a single self-propelled unit but also often composed of a trailer vehicle hauled by a tractor unit.
2. any of various wheeled frames used for transporting heavy objects.

SSR
• It’s called a Roadster: Super Sport Roadster

• It Drives like a Roadster, and not like a Truck…

• It Kind, of Sort of, looks like a Truck; but it also Looks like a Roadster

• It’s priced like a Roadster…

• We affectionately call it an R for Short, but then we call it a Truck

• Unlike a Truck, it Can’t carry much, but like a Roadster delivers loads of Fun

• Tows like a Roadster and not like a Truck

• It sits on a SUV chassis, but it has the mechanics of a sports car…

:willy:So, is it a Truck or is it a Roadster?:willy:
or Both???
:willy:What you say SSR-Fanatics:willy:​


In answer to your question: Is the SSR a Truck? Or Is it a Roadster? Yes
 
Pickup Truck

Raul,

You should be thankful that Florida calls it a Pickup Truck.

Cheaper to register and INSURE!!

You can call the "R" what ever you like.

I tell people “God made the Platypus” and no one knows what it is for sure.

And GM made the SSR, and no one knows what it is for sure.

But I LIKE IT!!

:blur:

I can get 3 golf bags and a cooler in the trunk of the SSR......
I can get 3 golf bags and a cooler in the back of my Corvette.
:willy:
Is the Corvette a truck because it carries the same cargo amount as the SSR?
Is my Vette a Roadster because its a 2 seat convertible?...:crazy

:lurk

Since I enter my SSR in a local TRUCK SHOW every year, it has to be a truck. However, it is a ROADSTER too, sooooooooo..
