    More than likely, Nissan Frontier. I will never own an ABAT. I don't give a damn how fuel efficient they are.

    Pretty cool looking ride... Looks like Yota has come competition... I like it - but not enough to trade my Taco for it. Tacoma's are battle tested....

    There is a conversion kit for Jeeps out there - pretty cool looking little truck: http://www.aev-conversions.com/photos/album3.php
