Heh heh, not surprised by most of those picks. I didn't know Rabbit made trucks back in '78. Neat.

My brother has a Rabbit pickup...they're funny to look at in person, because they're so small. There's hardly any room inside, but it does get good mileage. He doesn't drive it anymore because it's falling apart, but he did get good mileage with it commuting an hour to work everyday. He couldn't go very fast though, I think it topped out at around 75, downhill, with wind assistance

Hiya,

Quote from the Metro page:

But since the car weighed just over 1600 pounds, it had descent zip.

Hmmm, maybe a touch of irony?

Those Rabbit pickups are still sold in other parts of the world!
