It totally does... But I kind of want it anyway

It’s actually a really impressive bit of engineering and craft. Making the doors work around the back wheel wells because of the extreme chassis shortening is difficult work.
Also the fuel tank, drive shaft, exhaust, brake lines, and wiring all had to be modified to work too. Even the parking brake would have had to be changed to keep working.
It's literally a super light truck with giant tires lol.
- lifts it with just two fingers
  oh shit, it's true

If this were real, it might actually be a lot of fun, kinda reminds me of an obese Suzuki Samurai lol

Every time I saw one of those I wanted to put a penny in the back to make it do a wheelie.

- I've seen a couple people with those Smart Fortwos driving around with a big turn key sticking out the back as a joke.
I would unironically love to drive something like that. Yes, I see the many ridiculous things about it. Don't care!
- Make a Kei car bro dozer
- You wouldn't. It will be quite gutless, even if re-geared, and the steering incredibly washy. Slight uphill will be your nemesis.

Bet that would be fun to take off road. The dimensions are similar to a jeep.

- it would be way more work to swap frames

I imagine that more trucks would look like this if they were actually used the way certain people claim.

You mean, as an emotional support vehicle?

It actually looks kinda cool...

Yeah, its like someone tried to convert a Toyota pickup into a 2-door jeep.
I'm actually really down with this concept.

Man, I want to learn how to make cars like that with a welding torch and a good set of tools.

You think the OP image is AI? How do you figure? (Or maybe my brain just put too much emphasas on the word "without" and you aren't saying the OP image is AI.)
- I wasn't implying the image was made with AI. I was telling people they can learn to do this without using AI. I assume this image was made with photoshop, but people who had never seen these before would probably assume it's AI.

If you stick a penny in the back will it do a wheelie, too?

Glad to know I’m not the only old-ass person here who thinks the same thing.
- Penny Racers were the shit.
  I still have the one I got in probably '82/83. Black semi tractor with a rotating spoiler instead of a trailer and that's where you could clip a penny to make it do tricks.That thing got a lifetime of use and abuse and it still works great.

All of the poor front visibility with none of the "I actually need a truck" use cases

You're not wrong, but there is nothing like a truck bed. Of any size. It is so friggin practical, speaking as a man that has had access to pickup trucks but has only owned 5 cars as daily drivers...trying to finagle some big piece of shit into the cars for transport sucks. Especially anything of size that might not fit through the puny, stupid doors.
Yes, that fold-down backseat helps a lot with long, narrow items. But it's still hardly a substitute for a truck bed.
I would love a machine like this, but without the lift & massive wheels. Seems unnecessary.
- A roof rack and straps. For those rare occasions. For all other times youre just burning fuel to haul around tons of unnecessary weight and endanger pedestrians more.

It looks like you drive it remotely.

That would actually be pretty sick. I want to sit on the side of a helicopter and drive this

You say that like it's a bad thing

It looks great! Don't know why that ahole is making that face.

He doesn't understand that some men don't need their vehicle size to compensate for their tiny manhood (and I don't mean penis). Real men have fun and don't give a fuck, because they fuck. Like what you like with enthusiasm. Don't hurt other people or put down their joy. Support your fellows and sheilas. Cook an excellent meal. Mend your clothes. Be nuturing. Be kind. Don't be toxic. Be a fuckin' man. Or woman. Or whatever. I don't care. Be you. Be excellent to each other. Sorry, rant over.
- Amen
- Nice body shaming there. Real small tit energy.
He's lost
It’s not a look of disgust. It’s the face of desire, of yearning.
That's Jack from Lost. Totally not related to the meme, idk why they used this image lol. I believe this is the episode where he becomes a drunk and tries to convince everyone that they need to go back to the island

What? It seems pratical.

In what universe would that be?

Did any of you had the HotWheels ones that had magnets and could climb the door of your fridge?

Nah but my step-dad had a belt that made the Indiana Jones whip noise.
Darda cars!
No, but I remember having Stompers. Ki da similar.

Anybody who liked toy trucks would love that weird thing in the op.

Where's that bottom image from? I can't place it, but if I was a betting man I'd say that's from the flash-forward in the finale of the penultimate season of LOST, when the doctor is back in the real world, popping pills and swigging Jack Daniels.

WE HAVE TO GO BACK
- "But why?"
  "Because we have to stretch the goddamned season from 12 to 24 goddamned episodes, that's why. We have to go back because we have to burn airtime meandering in pointless circles, that's why. That and Mystery Box™️!!!"
TinEye says it's from "Lost".

It's a taquito.

I used to know someone who drove one almost like this. It was a RAV4 though. He was a swole short stack with bouncy blond curls who was always laughing and flirting and the car fit his personality to a T.
