I saw one of these at a Japanese tool event and omg they are adorable. They are sooooo tiny but incredibly versatile. Need to move this random thing like 20 feet ? Pop it on the low bed and drive over in no time flat. Need to cram it into some tiny place at the worksite? This thing can comfortably park gosh dang anywhere. Wanna look like a cool mother fucker? Pull in with your tiny adorable keitruck and pick up a load with a couple chicks. Instant pussymobile.
kei truck my beloved
Always remember, these people waited for years and* paid 100k to look like colossal douchebags. They had every opportunity to avoid their situation.
Not all Tesla owners are awful, but all cyberdorks deserve the product they got.
I’ve decided I want one, just because NO ONE will question whatever mods I choose to make to it. The questions about why I bought it in the first place will never cease, but why make it as close to a DeLorean time machine as a fucking “truck” can look? Not a peep.
… having come up with the BTF thing just for this comment, I’ve realized: Backwards, its actually a good fit. Shame about what it would do to road visibility.
The little truck isn’t legal to build and sell in the US. Truck sizes have exploded since 2012 because that’s when the CAFE standards changed to be based on vehicle footprint instead of vehicle classification.
Suddenly small trucks were required to have the same fuel economy as a hybrid sedan. So small trucks are out and instead of making them more fuel efficient they just make them bigger every refresh to keep up with increasing fuel economy standards.
That’s also why think the Dakota, Ranger, and S10 all suddenly disappeared at that time. The Ranger came back, but it’s larger than the F150 used to be.
It’s also why small cargo vans just stopped being a thing. Ib the last 3 years the Transit Connect, ProMaster City, and NV200 were all discontinued because they couldn’t keep that size and meet CAFE standards.
Of course, none of this applies to the Cybertruck. Fuck that thing.
there’s a few mini-truck dealerships (somewhat) near me and they’re supposedly street legal, even on highways around here. i reeeaaallly wanna get one just to move shit around town.
I test drove one recently. I have very little need for it; don’t haul much that frequently, but it drove way better than I expected, and I really wanted it for no good reason.
Let me introduce you to the Ape Poker
thats a baby
Why is it a crime to have a femboi gobble my cock in a keitruck? This is the future your grandma was scared of.
That Honda is amazing and I want one!
I have no use for it but I WANT THE BABY 🥺
Honda 100%. Even if Elon Musk wasn’t a colossal douche, I wouldn’t want to drive a truck that looks like it was ripped verbatim from a SNES game.
I have a 1997 Subaru Sambar kei truck and love it. I get so much done with it! But I would never take it on the interstate.
I always do a double take whenever I see any car made before the 2000s.
I’m going the opposite extreme. I have been looking at and day dreaming about getting an Isuzu N series 14Ft box truck. Just below the DOT limit. Maximum bed minimal cab.
