There's a Chevy hiding under there somewhere, it looks like it's based on a Silverado.

it can't be a blazer because they didn't start selling redesigned 2-door full-size blazers until 1992. So ths must be listed as a silverado.

It's "the RV from hell". Tricked out with machine guns, bulletproof armour, computers (ala KITT) & NOS.

I would be willing to bet that this is a GM Prototype that is similar to the Blazer XT-1. Many prototypes are use in movies. If not I would say that it was modeled after it. Look at the similarities. At first I thought this truck was a Lumina APV with the 87 and up grille and 4x4 chassis. But upon closer inspection it is a Tahoe with maybe the Lumina APV Windshield.

I have to say it started life as a full size Suburban and had the rear doors removed/welded over. Too short to be a Blazer/Tahoe.

Looks like a basic stock Suburban with a new windshield rather and some other small custom details than a full prototype.

Its not a aero generation full-size Suburban or a full-size Blazer. The areo Suburban and Blazer didn’t start production until 1991 for the 1992 model year.

Here is proof: One of the three pickups, a two-wheel drive C-3500 that was built for the "gate jump" scene, is for sale. Asking price is $45,000, and is listed at Moviemachines.net.

You can tell from these photos, it is for sure, not a Suburban or Blazer:

I rewatched this yesterday, I had forgot how many bad one-liners it had.

Owen say’s the "transfer case has torque splitting", which is redundant, as all transfer cases split torque and transfer it front-to-rear, hence the name. Nice battle scenes with it though.

Benfolio... We meet again!

I swear, I'm not stalking you! Lol..

Funny story, I was watching Family Guy and there was a joke regarding size, and someone said "peewee". It reminded me of a quote in a movie, so I googled it and got Tango and Cash. That got me curious about the guns and cars in the movie, so here I am, stalking someone from the Forza forums...

It seemed funnier before I typed it..

Not a K-2500. Two sources as a reference.

Quote While I cannot find out who originally built it, the truck started off as a 1988 C3500 and is powered by a 454.


Link to "bangshift.com"

Quote It started as a 1988 Chevrolet C3500 1 ton pickup. Massive modifications including a full roll cage were added and the "RV from HELL" has been restored to better than original, with side machine guns too!
