General Motors has filed a patent for the word “Badlands,” which leads us to believe that it may be getting ready to take on the all-new Ford F-150 Raptor.

It makes complete sense, as GM recently revealed the Colorado ZR2 concept at the Detroit Motor Show. That car was obviously built to compete with the most insane bakkie of them all.

We’re still not sure the name “Badlands” is as cool as “Raptor,” but we’ll just have to wait and see if Chevrolet’s offering does a better job of jumping over stuff than the Ford.

It never felt like it was working hard, and after 2 400 kilometres, neither did I.
