Road & Track said: "As you would expect from a truck with 64 percent of its weight on the front tires, understeer is pronounced during hard cornering. And even though the spring rates and anti-roll bar of the rear axle have been modified, axle tramp appears when traversing uneven road surfaces. Still, the all-wheel drive provides a confidence-inspiring level of stability during most driving conditions."
I always liked the idea of adding a fiberglass sportside bed (no longer available) and fiberglass fenders and hood... plus the Firestones that came on the Syclone weren't all that great!
