The original mini truck.

Yeah, the Subaru Brat with the ejector seats in the bed. We thought those were so fancy because we were used to riding around in truck beds without fancy seats.

They only put the seats back there so they could classify the truck as a passenger car and avoid truck taxes.

I think they still drive the teal Ford Rangers
One of my middle school social studies teachers (an actual man, not a butch) drove a pink Ranger just like that.

He would say it was “strawberry” when students gave him shite for driving a little pink truck

I drive a MINI Cooper JCW. It’s a pretty small car. I would not drive a truck as small as my car.

Like smart cars, I foresee some serious truck tipping going on.

Maybe, but only if it cost about just a bit more than a nice golf cart.

If that pic of the teal ford ranger was taken in NOLA area, that might have been my high school ride

I believe they were added to get around the import duties on trucks. Subaru was able to claim it was a car.
