Think of it as a outback wagon with an open bed instead of an enclosed cargo area.
If you like the outback wagon and want to toss something that weight wise, would be OK in the back of the wagon (but can get wet and COULD be taller), then this is probably a perfectly good utility vehicle.
Some people think they look odd, I think they look fine. You can also get them with the turbo engine for those moments when you simply MUST get r dun quickly!
