Hello, Mr. Moderator:

Fornetti's right, seven posts and all are verbally identical. The links he use shoots to porn sites.

Can you banish this idiot back to the shallow end of the gene pool?

Place hear in VT sells those little trucks as "off-road" only. Too bad too, cause I like small trucks. Miss my Rabbit p-up.

Yep, it is. Standard Rampage 2.2 w/carb and the Shelby body parts added on by Chrysler.

I've been trying to dig up these photos for a while, and I finally found them. Not really applicable for autocrossing or anything, but this company converts F-450's into FWD so you can roll your bikes (or classic Mini?) into the lowered bed:

At work we have a few wheel chair vans that started out as 4WD diesel Ford E 350 vans. But the rear axle was removed to drop the rear floor, making it a FWD. Basically it is just the front half of the van with a fiberglass body added to the back.

Maybe the conversion wasn't done properly, but they are junk. Never mind the fact they ride like lumber wagons, they are just plain terrible. A computer system had to be installed to limit power because drivers would tromp on the throttle, and rip the CV joints out of them. So now they are gutless as hell, but somehow still have terrible torque steer. I hear that the company that made them went out of business after being sued by the City of Toronto. They bought a whole fleet of them, and had nothing but problems as well.
