Cd 0.259 Chev. Sierra/Silverado El Camino

If General Motors devolved to 1987,with a 2013 spin on passenger car-derived pickups,the Holden VF Commodore Ute body could be inflated to the dimensions of the GMC/Chevrolet twins,Sierra and Silverado,as a unibody platform,doing away with the cab-to-bed gap,and with an aftermarket 1980's GM aeroshell,attain Cd 0.259,giving Tesla a run for their money.This is with mirrors.
America's first production pickup truck was based on the Ford Model-T passenger car, around 1909.Why pickup trucks ever strayed from the passenger car silhouette remains a great modern day mystery.
