1. The Ford Raptor - Ford's off road titan of a truck absolutely demolishes all others in production off-road vehicles. Its fast, can go anywhere, and can do it in comfort (with the super-crew models). If GM brought back the ZR2 it might finally have some competition, and i can stop admitting the raptor creams any of GM's truck offerings.
2. No More Hummer - when GM killed off the hummer brand it also cut out the entirety of its off-road performance segment. While the H2 and H3 were watered down versions of the original, they were still potent off-road vehicles.
3. People Will Buy It - The original ZR2 still commands quite a premium. The ZR2 has held its value remarkably well. Why? Because people still really want them. They are simply amazing vehicles.
4. Everybody Hates the New Wrangler - Jeeps latest iteration of the famous wrangler suv has kinda pissed off jeep classicists by adding a 4-door model. They want jeeps that haven't really changed much since the CJ5. Many off-road enthusiasts are starting to consider other options for the 'ultimate off road vehicle' and a new ZR2 would be almost irresistible.
5. GM's already making some insane vehicles - a 550hp caddy? a corvette that can roll will Ferrari's finest? GM just needs an off road vehicle that is just as ridiculous.
So, GM, time to get to work!
