Subaru Brat

Contrary to popular belief Subaru did sell a truck in the U.S. for a short period. The Brat was a compact truck that had a potent 1.6-liter flat-four engine under the hood. The capable truck was compact and very good on gas, which was important during the seventies. The Brat had a car-based design so it appealed to the person who didn’t need a full-sized truck (via Subaru Car Blog).

The Brat is largely considered a legend in the automotive community, and its popularity has continued to rise. These cars used to be rather affordable but now you can expect to pay a pretty penny to get your hands on one. Few cars are as fun to drive and provide the sleeper value as the Brat was. This was a seriously fun and unique compact truck that anyone could toy around with.
