Man, this is a model which I wasn’t aware of up to [October 2019]. Volkswagen actually manufactured a model christened “The Thing”! Cosmetically like a combination precursor to the Dasher (first North American run of the Passat) and the Jeep Wrangler/Toyota Landrover.

If any "Thing" ever needed a "Roll-Bar", this Wild-Thing" is the one. O_O on second thought, maybe the owners insurance beneficiary doesn't. >_
