So as recently pointed out to me by one of our listeners

The dodge rampage is a thing!

Well I knew it was a thing, but now I know it's name!

I think this is a really good lookin "ute" or el camino type vehicle. My question to you all is what's the most obscure or unknown one of these vehicles you know of. Can be rare of low numbers or could be unknown because lost to the ages.

And no one offs don't count ( if the made more then 2 il take it, so no bmw 3 ute sorry)

Is good looking tho.

Below is podcast plug

It's a badge-engineered Dodge Rampage, only available in '83

The Austin A40 is pretty dang obscure, but there are others from Commer and even Armstrong-Siddeley(!) below. For a more modern extreme rarity, that would be the Dodge ute based on the Hillman Hunter and only sold in South Africa: the Husky. A relative (also built from the Hunter) is for sale in Iran - the Paykan Hunter ute.

Just found this, too. Got to be obscure.

The Proton Jumbuck.

Okay, mass production but obscure to the US, anyway.

This is in Australia, where even Ford and Holden/GM still market Utes.

Imagine a true SS El Camino . (Not subject to Chicken tax.)

might be laziest design team in history (maybe Porsche could still hold tilte, oh uh yeah just make everything look like a 911)

But the grill is barely changed, and nothing else! Still... I like the side stripe
