Sorry, you could not give me enough new vehicles to make me want to trade that! :Wow1::drool:

So besides giving in to the pillbox styling trend, what's the purpose of shrinking the windows and windshield to the point where vision is restricted? Not exactly utilitarian
It is a show truck designed to gauge consumer reaction. Nothing utilitarian intended or implied

I bet the chopped top reduces air resistance a decent amount

That's the way I feel most days, but with fall here it is the same every year. Store it , sell it, or plow with it?
This is what will most likely happen again this year as I don't have enough room to store them all

LOL Can relate... this is the first year where my indoor storage will be at capacity. Getting reno plans for the barn done as part of the house addition/remodel.
Btw, sweet Willys. They use salt on the roads on the Island? I'd be afraid to do that up here.

They use tons of salt on the roads, plus I'm surounded by salt water. The house is about 1/4 mile back from the shore, but when it blows(and it always does) the house windows are covered in salt spray!

Shouldn't that thing be in a museum, or at least someone's garage?

Nope. Wheels are round, they are made to roll!
Art gets hung on a wall, rigs get driven!
Don't get me wrong I only put about 250 miles /yr on it, but it is used for hauling branches, dirt, gravel, and keepng my driveway clear of snow.

Your point is well taken. I don't understand the little slit windows either. To experience the full effect on a vehicle (not a concept) which is sold, test drive a Toyota FJ Cruiser...You can't see out the front, side or back.

Link is broken...please fix....would love to read the review and look at the pics.
Oh....and I hate you for not giving me a call so I could lend a second opinion on the test. I even passed you guys on the way out to the test I think! Hint, I will be at EJS this year again. I only live like 2-3 hours away!
