I was thinking the same thing. Even my '04 Suburban is a "partial zero emissions" vehicle since it is usually parked 6 out of 7 days in any given week.

Well, when it's not running, it's not emitting anything... Except possibly IR... And probably some small amount of EMI... And maybe a bit of outgassing fumes if new...

"Truck" - Body-on-frame? Then yes. Unibody? No.



I'd go with "UTVV" - "Utility Truck Van Vehicle"
There's absolutely nothing sporty about a 2.2 metric ton car which is exactly as tall as it is wide (185cm ~ 6'1"), agreed.

4'x8' or 1.2 x 2.4 meters? Not quite. But I can fit a box 1.2m x 2.1m x 1m in there. Or one snow blower, most of my tools and a huge heap of firewood, which is the plan for next weekend.

And it's body on frame. Same frame as the D40 Navara, if I'm not mistaken.

So Utility Truck Van it is, I guess :-) Good name :-)

I call it "varebil" which is the correct term in Norwegian, and it actually says so in the registration papers (and the green plates are for varebil only). Means it's a 2-seat commercial cargo hauler.

Speaking of remodeling, finally completed the finish on the last of the chairs/stools last night. Our kitchen remodel is officially complete!

It's not a cuckoo clock, just looks like one. It's more of a birdhouse sort of thing.
