Are you talking about this one? http://www.famouscars.de/images/trio-mit-vier-faeusten/tm4f-pickup04.jpg Then it is a Jimmy. An S-15 Jimmy, and therefore not a pickup, but an SUV.
FamousCars.de ◊ 2007-03-31 15:07	The car is often used to get from A to B (the Corvette only has 2 seats) so it should get 3 - to 4 stars. Also it is part of a toy set (Helicopter, Corvette and this GMC) so it's an important part of the show I think. Origin of the picture above is ep 2.05 but I think they used it in several episodes ... -- Last edit: 2007-03-31 15:09:16
Timn ◊ 2008-03-08 22:52	Yeah thats a s-15 GMC Jimmy, I caught the rolling credits of an episode on DVD I think a company called Flint Systems did the conversion on it. Had a Vinyl snap on, bimini type top that could be raised up. I always thought that was a sweet truck. I don't know if many trucks were done up like this on the West Coast / beach areas.. Was a cool concept. That truck came into the show Riptide in the 2nd season. Cody Allen (Perry King) drove this truck. The 1st season he had a roughed up old Woody he drove. I wonder where it is today, along with the Screamin Mi Mi Helicopter. -- Last edit: 2008-03-08 22:55:09
luckies ◊ 2009-05-27 06:47	The people who made and built all of the car for this show riptide are Unique Movie Cars inc,They built all 3 corvettes the 2 blue blazers and then BUILT the 2 red convertible blazers.The production company did that so they could film the actors they were the first to do that. Then other company's took the idea for the public this company also built the hardcastle and mccormick coyotes cars for a-team and pretty much all of the cannell show in the 80's.Here are a few link for them ..... http://uniquemoviecarslasvegas.com/ youtube.com/uniquemoviecas -- Last edit: 2009-10-26 16:32:18

mike962 ◊ 2012-11-10 11:48	a small question this is RWD only so is it really a off road/ SUV then ??? -- Last edit: 2012-11-10 11:48:42
antp ◊ 2012-11-12 17:48	We renamed that category from "4x4" to "off-road" for cases like that (as many SUVs were not 4x4)
