Just a quick note on this concept “Suburban”-based big truck, which was designed by amateur vehicle designer Jonathan Markowski some time back. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like his website is being updated anymore and his email has expired, so we couldn’t find out more about the truck design, but what do you think?
It looks like a basic heavy duty truck, but with a huge spoiler on the top, which would, conceivably, improve aerodynamics.
This concept was part of his “Gas Guzzlers” series, based on big vehicles like the Suburban and Escalade.
Elsewhere I’ve seen this design referred to as the “Crusader.”
It’s designed for America, “the land of the Suburban,” but Markowski meant is more as a joke than anything, partly due to the amount of fuel that would be required for this truck.
He did point out that Suburbans can have a lot of power though. You can outfit them with engines that fall short only of the Viper, with 8.1 liters, according to the designer.
