The Honda Civic Type R pickup truck.
- The $4 pickup truck has arrived.
- The folks at $4 UK created a $4 based on the new $4.
- The pickup codenamed Project P uses the same 306 horsepower engine as the standard Type R.
- Honda has current plans to put the Civic pickup into production.
Before there was the car-based crossover SUV, there was the car-based pickup truck. Ford had the Ranchero while the Chevy offered up the legendary El Camino. More recently, Australia's Holden produced the Maloo.
Now, Honda has entered the fray with a Civic-based pickup. Think of it as a Civic-amino if you will.
And it's based on not just any Civic, but the Civic Type R - the fastest Civic of them all.

As cool as the Civic-amino may be, it's unlike it will ever become a production model.
"There are no plans to put this into production," Webb added. "But we will be using it to transport our lawn and garden products as and when required!"
