Ride of the Day: 2002 GMC Sonoma
By Sean O'Hara
Some people never grow up, and that’s good thing in our book. Take Richard from Alberta, for example. He dug Hotwheels so much as a kid that he decided to build one of his own as a daily driver. So he took a very bland-looking GMC Sonoma and turned it into a sweet-ass street cruiser.
Mods include:
- Tenzo Intake
- Flowmaster Exhaust
- Helix Engine Comps.
- Hypertech Perforamance Chip
- Bilstein Shocks
- Belltech Springs
- GM Performance Parts Drivetrain / Trans.
- Sweet Flame Graphics on the hood and doors
Why We Like It
Flames make almost anything better, and this truck isn’t short on them. Throw in the nostalgic Hotwheels effect — that reminds you that men are just kids with a bigger budget and less self control – and you start to get the concept behind it.
What We’d Change
We understand why he’s got the big wing on the back — it looks just like the original Hotwheels truck – but it does look a bit odd.
