New "Hot Rod" Truck
General Motors Corp. was to unveil today its plans for a revival of the Chevy El Camino car-truck as a 2010 model Pontiac hot rod. The "sport truck" doesn't have a name yet; GM will run a contest over the next month asking for submissions at a Pontiac Web site
www.pontiac.com/namethiscar, and announce the winner April 15.
It will haul more than 1,000 pounds and tow 3,500 pounds -- as much as some small pickups.
