I think that this used to be a cargo truck. Kinda like a U-Haul. But it looks like it's an attempt at creating a flatbed. Only, there's no bed! It's only a frame!
While undoubtedly the burnout king of full-size haulers, there are a few problems associated with a vehicle such as this.
Weatherproofing- I guess if you drive fast enough in the rain, it shouldn't be an issue. No real need to roll up the windows, as evidenced by this picture.
Security- Door locks won't really do a whole lot of good to discourage potential thieves. No, not car thieves, stupid! I mean those that'll steal stereos, shift knobs, tapes, handbags, etc. Like you'd honestly even have room for valuables in there.
Driveability- The peculiar weight distribution lends to some very peculiar handling characteristics. You better hope those front brakes are heavy-duty. Imagine, if you will, driving downhill and then going around a sharp turn. Can you pick the rears up off the ground to aid in cornering?
Crashworthiness- A rear-ender, while the occupants are quite far away from the impact zone, they are subject to some incredible whiplash! And as if your head snapping around like your neck was a slinky wasn't bad enough, you have to worry about getting flung out the back of that thing. That frame doesn't look too comfy.
In a head, on, you have to wonder how securely the cab is attached to the frame. Somehow I can imagine that thing flipping forward, scaring everybody even more!
