The German Army needed an Jeep. So the Volkswagen folks went to work and created Die Kuebelwagen. Volkswagen sold some in America, and since most Americans cannot pronounce Kuebelwagen, they named them the "Thing". I went to High School with a Thing owner and he said it was the greatest off road car he had ever seen.
