i like the idea of a FWD, 2 passenger, front "clip". basically just a car from the b-pillar forward. built in jack at the back with a retractable low speed wheel to guide it back into various "back halves" with back wheels to complete the vehicle, depending on what you need that day.

just commuting? lightweight teardrop rear end
family outing? snap on a back end with extra seats
hauling some scrap? snap on a pickup bed
camping? snap on the RV back end.

basically, you would go to a dealer and buy the front half, have it coupled with the back-half of your choosing, and take off. later, additional back-halves can be purchased and delivered to you.
