MAZDA "DUAL-SPORT" CONCEPT TRUCK

MAZDA HAS TEAMED UP with famed helmet painter and apparel designer Troy Lee to create a "DualSport" concept vehicle. Based on the company's new B-Series pickup, the modified machine is loaded with custom features, including a folding aluminum loading ramp and an onboard pressure washer with an electrically driven pump and 7-gallon water tank. The truck was on display at the opening round of the Mazda sponsored AMA Motocross Na tionals at Glen Helen Raceway in San Bernardino, California. "Mo tocross exemplifies the youthful, tough, agile and athletic image we created in our new B-series trucks," said Mazda marketing group manager and amateur MXer Jack Stavana. A production version of the truck is plannedtoo bad it won't include the con cept vehicle's exotic paint, load ing ramp or pressure washer.
