I didn't get anything related from that link, but I was hoping either Kia or Hyundai would make a truck using the Telluride/Palisade platform.

"IF" they get traction with this entry you can be sure they'll follow up with a full size , I dont think the Telly Platform will work though as its front wheel drive biased , but Genesis are working on a new platform for the GV80 , that would would be suitable for a fullsize pick up likely ...............

I mean, the Honda Pilot and Ridgeline are FWD based, despite having AWD/4WD options. Not that they're exactly the definition of rugged trucks/SUVs, they do work.

I do agree that a RWD-based platform for a truck makes more sense, especially if Kia/Hyundai want their trucks to be taken seriously by truck enthusiasts. Truck guys make fun of Honda Ridgelines almost constantly haha.
