The 2002 Unimog U5000 is now listed ins eral placed, but does it fullfill the requements to be included? // Liftarn
My own tuppen'orth: It's a truck. It's described as such in the opening paragraph of it's own wikipedia page, it's made by Mercedes' truck division, it looks like a truck, drives like a truck (good at hauling heavy loads, but has a 55mph top speed, 8 speed gearbox, and is useless at both acceleration and hills) and probably quacks like a truck. It's a truck! Just because some barmy people buy them and try to drive them like cars doesn't change what it actually is, just as cutting a flatbed into which you toss heavy bits of hardware and bags of cement, into the back end of a small car, without changing any other parts of the superstructure doesn't really make it a pickup, much as you might try to use it as such until the rear stub axles buckle and the bodywork follows suit. 77.102.101.220 ( talk) 23:09, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
The Unimog should be removed. It is not "constructed principally for retail sale to consumers for personal use transporting people on public roads" It is a commercial vehicle and I'm pretty sure you need a CDL to drive it. A Ford F350 is meant for regular consumers they market it towards that they create luxurious cabins and features for non-commercial use. You can go to a normal ford dealer and get an F350 and you don't need a CDL. You can't just go to your local Mercedes dealer and get a Unimog. Also, F150/250/350 and other similar sized pickups from other manufacturers are considered a light truck. A Ford F450 is considered medium truck and is clearly commercial use and they have a separate webpage for commercial. There is a clear difference between commercial and passenger vehicles and the Unimog is definitely commercial. Even the MTX is marketed towards passenger use and they kept the weight lower so you don't need a CDL because it's not intended for commercial use. The H1 is different than a military H1. They special make a civilian version clearly not for commercial or military use. Your pickup H1 argument makes no sense. Wikiwalker838 ( talk) 18:26, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
Can we get rid of this? It seems like everyone agrees except Meio. Wikiwalker838 ( talk) 18:30, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
What's the consensus on X for this list? It looks like people want x = 14,000. Besselfunctions ( talk) 21:27, 13 February 2019 (UTC)
Do these cars listed all meet the minimum production requirement of 25 the was established for this list? Besselfunctions ( talk) 00:48, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
