    Want...
    Ford of Brazil's new Troller T4 Trail

    • It looks sort of like the offspring of an FJ and a Jeep. (Hopefully with much better visibility than the FJ)GM278
    • I've read it's meant to compete with the Jeep. I like it for its differenceimbecile
    • 3.2 TurboDiesel, borgwarner transfer case. I like. I wonder if the long travel and soft springs aren't going to be annoying on asphalt... like the TJ.zarkonite
    • is that the exhaust for avoiding being submerged in water? pretty cool_niko
    • Cool looking, I'm positive they will never sell in the states.robotron3k
    • It's like a cross between a Jeep and a Toyota FJ Cruiserdbloc
    • lol just realized GM said the same thingdbloc
    • _niko, by the windshield? that is for the intakeimbecile
    • _niko, Snorkel for intake (like imbecile said). Water doesn't compress like fuel and air. It can actually bend rods and destroy a motor when you suck water in.GM278
    • ...which is why you NEVER EVER attempt to drive a car through deep water during flood conditions. My PSA of the day. :PGM278
    • Ah got it, pretty cool_niko
    • Inversely, this is why cars flood in 6” of water, because intakes have been moved low in the front of modern carsimbecile
    • "No, Ford will never sell this SUV in the US, as it probably can't meet federal requirements for emissions and crash-testing, among other regulatory hurdles. "Maaku
    • @robo: this car is built on the Ford Ranger platform.zarkonite
    • specifically, it uses the T6 platform, which covers more than the ranger.imbecile
