2010 Scion Pickup

When I read this article on PickupTruck.com, I had to laugh a little. It seems that Toyota might be kicking around the idea of a compact pickup for it’s Scion line. It will have a 2.4L 4cyl, the same basic equipment as the rest of the Scion line, and the option of adding cool custom parts. It seems like a good idea, right up until you think about what you can do with a compact 4cyl 2wd car-based pickup…no hauling, no off-road, no towing anything heavier than 2k lbs.

All I can think to do is to put some astroturf in the back, a kick-ass coffee can for a muffler, give it some really small wheels, and tow my grandma’s motorcycle trailer (the little trailer you tow behind a motorcycle, not an actual trailer FOR motorcycles).

Wait! I could race it! 17 sec. 1/4 miles should be within my reach…
