At least it is off-road....
That is more 'side' of the road than offroad. It probably had a breakdown... from embarrassment.

Hey...

This made me think of "Extended bed" using sliding rails within the bed. Pretty similiar to demountable platform on real trucks but in smaller scale. With this system you could shorten the bed to normal for "around the city" travel or off-roading, but you could extend the bed to actually transport something. :)

Might need lengthening of the wheelbase to the back for weight reasons, but something like this then....

edit: Added the extra space for the behind back seats compartment :)

That's interesting. I'd like to see how they deal with the drive line.
