Biggest thing I noticed is that the bed rail is completely straight. No
pixelation whatsoever. Highly unlikely for an actual photograph. As well,
the angle of the bedrail doesn't match up. The bed rail of a pickup is
generally parallel with the bottom edge of the rocker panel. This one
appears to even be angled upward toward the rear slightly. Anyway, who the
hell would buy a PT pickup - can you say Dodge Rampage?! :-)
