Hmmmmm... I wonder if that is where those bosozoku in Japan got the idea for those high exhaust pipes... Must have been plenty of army jeeps in post-war Japan...

My understanding is when the US started occupying Japan they didn't want to have to ship jeeps there, so they told Toyota to start making jeeps for our troups. That is why you have old Toyotas that look a lot like jeeps.
