I still think it should be called the Pontiac G8 Ute, but that'd be marketing suicide in the US.

First of all, Holden doesn't exist in North America so why on earth would they call it that? Secondly, yeah it has nothing to do with Top Gear.

Stop complaining about it being in the Top Gear forum, use the "!!" button and inform the admins. They will move it.

Concerning the car I voted for El Camino, yes it isn't a Chevy, but the name is iconic enough that it doesn't matter. When most people in the US think truck-car hybrid they think El Camino, not Chevy El Camino.

Your right in that we hate the word "ute", most likely it will be named either a bunch of acronyms, something really angry sounding like "Hammer", or some obscure French slang word.

Chevy El Camino. I'm sorry, but if anything, it should be a Chevrolet, not a Pontiac.

GM denied Pontiac's request to build their own version of the El Camino in the 60s, so I put in GMC Sprint.
