It makes me wonder how GM got the Suburban name away from Chrysler.

During that whole time there was a company called Dart Truck Company that built heavy off hiway dump trucks and such. They had been in business since the early 1900s. Then there's always the Schwinn Sting Ray. Actually, before Schwinn made the Sting Rays they were already making a bike called Corvette. I always wondered what the deal was with that.
