Review written on 8/1920.
Philadelphia Motors is in a unique position with the Quaker XT. The Pickup Truck segment rules the Quaker market. While the Miogaror is the worst vehicle in the segment. Where does the Quaker XT fit between these two extremes? Should consumer celebrate Philadelphia Motors's new Pickup Truck? Or is this just another underachieving vehicle in the Pickup Truck segment?

The first stop for the Philadelphia Motors Quaker XT was the track. I won't lie. I was scared. This Pickup Truck is built for performance. Philadelphia Motors cut no corners when designing this vehicle for speed. The vomit stains on the carpet prove that the 117 hp @ 2848RPMs 5195 cc V6 engine roars this rocket to a top speed of 75 mph in an impressive 17.792s 0 to 60 mph. If that wasn't enough with the 174 lb-ft of torque will melt the tires off the rims. When hooked to a trailer, this baby will haul an amazing 4096 lbs! I'm guilty wanting to steal this one for my self. The Philadelphia Motors Quaker XT sticks to the road like burnt eggs on a frying pan. The handling characteristics of the Quaker XT puts it in the top tier of Pickup Truck.

Once track testing was over it came time to look at the Philadelphia Motors Quaker XT's interior. We found that it was very bare bones. So much so that we could not stand to be in it for long. It seems Philadelphia Motors was trying to make something retro by filling the vehicle with decades old styling and gadgets. We recommend looking at other vehicles if you plan on buying a long range vehicle.

In terms of passenger and cargo space the Philadelphia Motors Quaker XT's 60 cu-ft could be considered quite adequate for its class. The seats are roomy enough for almost every person, it can store what you would expect, and there is still enough room left over to have a bunch of knickknacks. It's hard to see where Philadelphia Motors could improve this car. It's good. Very good.

Serious effort goes into every Philadelphia Motors Quaker XT produced. The build quality of these vehicles is amazing! We could not find a single flaw in its construction while we were testing it. Everything fits properly, nothing is misaligned or misplaced. All of us here at GCM commend Philadelphia Motors in their efforts when it comes to the production of this vehicle.

I imagine it'll be rare to find a Philadelphia Motors Quaker XT in repair shops or even junk yards. These things are well built with quality parts. And that will show in the long run.

The Philadelphia Motors Quaker XT's fuel economy is impressive, but not in a good way. The Quaker XT's 8.6 mpg is one of the worst in class. This might not be troublesome when you look at the numbers, but it will be when you actually have to pay for it.

From the looks of things, the engineers at Philadelphia Motors took the bare minimum approach. The Philadelphia Motors Quaker XT has just enough safety features and quality materials to keep you and your family safe in most instances. But don't expect much if it effected their bottom line. There is enough there to product their liabilities, thus protecting them from lawsuits. No more, no less. If you are focused on keeping your family safe, this is not the vehicle for you.

I was happy with the time I spent in the Philadelphia Motors Quaker XT. This car is truly magnificent. I think future generations will look back at this vehicle and think, "I wish I owned one of these." It is absolutely one of the best Pickup Truck you can buy. An instant classic that others in the segment will be compared to. I wish I could spend more time with the Quaker XT but it is time for them to take it away. I believe I might go buy one myself.
