Volkswagen went happy hardcore once again for the Wörthersee festival with the Amarok Power Concept. Rumor has it that the 5,000 watt DJ set can only play Scooter.

A reader spotted this Volkswagen Amarok pickup at an Ann Arbor, Michigan dealership looking fresh out of the service department. He even confirmed it was a 2.0 TDI with a six-speed manual, making the burn that we can't buy it so much worse.

VW solidified their bid to be the official vehicle of the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics five years ago, and have spent the time since assembling a 3,000 vehicle fleet that includes some insane Volkswagen Amarok monster trucks.

England's 4x4 Magazine has named the 2014 Volkswagen Amarok their "Pickup of the Year," just throwing sand in the face of us Americans who will continue to be denied access to the vehicle.

Why use a wrecking ball, explosives, or an excavator to destroy a giant steel chimney when you can just hook it up to four Volkswagen Amarok pickup trucks and let them pull it down for you? SCIENCE.

Our story of the VW Amarok motorhome begins in the 234th year of the United States, or 2010. In a modernist condo in Palo Alto, there lived a guy named Gary Jr., whose Brioni suit exuded something people called "expensive."

The VW naming department is probably awesome. We're betting it goes like this: "Let's do drugs and read local-language editions of Encyclopedia Brittanica." And that's how the Inuit word for "wolf" came to name this new truck, the VW Amarok.

We've finally uncovered the name of VW's as-of-last-we-heard-unnamed-or-maybe-something-more-robustly-named pickup truck. It'll be called the Volkswagen Amarok. In some dialects, the name means "loves stones" and in Inuit Eskimo, means "wolf." What? Das Germans didn't want to call it "Wolfenstein?" [PickupTrucks]
