Before the EU harmonizations, Denamrk had a 180% tax on firt time registration of new cars (because there was no local auto industry, and they wanted to preserve currency by repairing old cars instead of importing new ones). But there was no tax on heavy trucks. So they brought in El Caminos and added a 500 lb steel plate on the truck bed. Presto: It was a heavy truck for tax purposes (above 2 tons unloaded weight). Pretty useless for hauling goods, but a nice airconditioned Cadillac ride.
