Whats the SUV...?

What is that SUV from the snickers comercial? I know it must be some kind of fake, but it dosent seem like they would make a whole car for one stupid commercial either... so it must be built on top of some other car or truck. anyone know or have any ideas?

Probably just some full sized truck, like a ford F150 or a chevy 1500. cheep and expendable.

Like I said, they probably took a full sized truck, striped it to the frame, and built something on top of it. Its really easy.

See unlike our cars, Trucks and SUV's have a Full length Frame under the car that the suspension, body, enging are all bolted to. that means that any one can be removed with out (Mostly) effecting the rest of the car, so you could strip a picup truck of the cab, front end and Box (The rear area) and still have a running vieicle. Once you've done that , you can pretty much build any thing you want on it, and as long as you connected all the controls that "THING" could be driven.

Cheep and easy.
