33: Daihatsu Rocky

It may be a hard thing to believe, but there was a time when Daihatsu was a thing here in America. The Daihatsu Rocky was an SUV designed to appeal to those who might have otherwise gone for a Suzuki Samurai. The engine was fairly basic, churning out a simplistic 94 hp while at the same time offering everything that you’d want in a backwoods SUV. There were not many of these sold and you seldom see them on the road anymore. Yet for most collectors and off-roaders, the Rocky is a great package.

The styling is still attractive to this day and the short wheelbase made piloting the Rocky an easy task. Likewise, the Rocky exhibited everything that most outdoor enthusiasts want in a compact SUV. The no compromising design offered a lot to like for a little bit of price, and that is hard to come by in this world of crossover vehicles.
