Default American atv's?

Why don't one of the major American car companies come out and make some atv's. Think of what kind of machines they could make with their big money. Maybe they could sponsor cannondale or partner up or something to get them going. Everyone knows how American muscle cars are all about torque and acceleration. What would the atvs they make be like, I think it would be awesome. The major japaneese companys honda, suzuki, yamaha, etc.. all make atvs. I wish a major American car company would try to compete on this level with the japaneese. I would love to own say a sport quad made by chevy or ford called maybe a Spam wordSpam word Spam wordSpam word Spam wordSpam word Spam wordSpam word  750 or dodge come out with a VIPER atv. I guess I'm just dreamin but I'm bored and this is just a thought.

I remember ford had a 4x4 atv like automobile that came close to production but it was dropped at the last second. Other than the Tomahawk i dont think any manufactures even thought about making an atv.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

One of the big 3 should make a street legal ATV for those people who want motorcycle nimbleness and efficiency, but want some of the conveniences of a car.

I could draw some cool scetches of how a dodge viper or whatever atv should look like. I think I could even put the raptors looks to shame, it and the v-force are the two best looking quads I've ever seen.

It can't do the quarter in 3.7sec.. that means it outruns top fuel dragsters...You mean it goes 0-60 in 3.7sec.
