Did Pontiac Make a GTO Pickup Truck?

The Pontiac GTO is a classic American muscle car that has been around since the 1960s. It was a popular choice for those looking for power and performance.

But did Pontiac ever make a GTO pickup truck? The answer is no, Pontiac did not make a GTO pickup truck.

The first Pontiac GTO was released in 1964 and was based on the LeMans, an intermediate-sized model made by the company. It featured an upgraded V8 engine and other improvements that made it a performance car. Over the years, the GTO evolved into its own separate model, with several different generations being produced up until 1974.

Although there were rumors that Pontiac was planning to produce a pickup truck version of the GTO, this never came to fruition. The closest thing to a GTO pickup truck was the 1973 Pontiac Grand Am Safari Wagon. This vehicle had some of the same styling cues as the GTO but was built on a station wagon chassis.

In addition to this model, there have also been aftermarket companies that have attempted to create their own versions of the GTO pickup truck. Some of these have included custom bodies built onto existing trucks or completely fabricated vehicles with all new parts. While these custom creations can be impressive, they are still not official Pontiac models.

Conclusion:

No, Pontiac did not make a GTO pickup truck. However, there have been some aftermarket companies that have attempted to create their own versions of the vehicle. These custom creations can be impressive but they are still not official models from Pontiac.
