History of this Hot Wheels Car Model

The Isuzu Faster, known in the United States as the Chevrolet LUV (Light Utility Vehicle), is a pickup truck marketed by Isuzu from 1972 to 2002 over three generations. The LUV and its chief rival, the Datsun 620, both debuted in 1972 in both Japan and internationally. For its initial 2016 release, Hot Wheels decked her out in the colors featured in the 1970s as the "Mighty Mike" decal package as the original ad pictured at Japanese Nostalgic Cars shows.

Trivia
Technically, the Chevrolet LUV isn't a Chevrolet at all. They were rebadged Isuzu Fasters that GM sold in the Americas before developing compact pickups of their own. If you count it, this truck is one of only two Isuzu vehicles that Hot Wheels has ever released, the other being the 1999 Isuzu VehiCross.

History of this Hot Wheels Car Model

With a roll bar, a parachute, a blown V8 engine and rear paddle tires, this Jeep eats up the competition! Being a modified version of the '42 Jeep CJ-2A from World War II, this truck has an oversized engine sticking through the hood (something we've come to expect from Hot Wheels) and four exhaust pipes protruding from the each side. Imagine if this vehicle were in WWII!

The casting was retooled in 2020, although it is not entirely clear what changed.

History of this Hot Wheels Car Model

The Twin Mill III is a Hot Wheels casting designed by Josh Henson that debuted in 2008 New Models. Twin Mill III features two large engines on opposite sides of the car. The front-end of Twin Mill III resembles the front-end of Twin Mill. It has two triangle-shaped headlights. More of the twin engines is visible on the sides of the Twin Mill III.

Somewhere between the end of April 2012 (Base code E17) and the end of May 2012 (Base code E21) the mold for the engines was slightly altered. The little dots on the sides of the engines are now gone; the side of the engines is flat
