Mitsubishi Delica L300. Drive one of these and pretend you're playing Moon Patrol in real life.

Built in fridge, seats that fold flat into a bed. This thing was ahead of it's time.

"On Dec 14th 2009, a Troller made the news when it cleared São Paulo's flooded city streets during a live broadcast."

Yeah, that one is super clean - sano - no doubt that would fetch a premium price!

Wonder why ford doesn’t bring that to the US? It might be a contender against the wrangler.

Emissions and safety. It wouldn't pass either, and to make it do so would probably require enough re-engineering to put it's price well over what people would pay for it.

I hope the new Bronco takes some things from the Troller.
