@@100PercentJake lol excellent response I have no idea what Elliot is thinking btw this is 100% better then the BMW tray

Definitely agree on wishing there more Kei cars in the U.S.! There are so many cool ones, especially the turbo ones to get around the 660cc limit and still have decent power. Another superb video Jake! Thank you!

It's got a sort of charm as a runaround, low running costs😊👍👍

"If you hit a pedestrian, you die and the pedestrian is just fine." That had me rolling! Thanks for showcasing this microtruck!

Congrats on hitting 7k subs. I hope it continues to grow...

Picking up one of these on Wednesday thanks for your video really cool insight didn’t sound overly produced or thought of you literally just went with the flow great job

Wow! Jake... I love watching and listening to your content but this is easily your best to date... great video! Keep them coming! 😉😎😀

Love the video Jake great job on bringing something that most people have never seen keep it

Man did you just back through the drive thru? Haha sweet. That honda is awesome, I totally want one now

Needs an LS-swap i think.

Awesome video! Makes me want to get one even more...I think the Daihatsu Copen and the Suzuki Alto Lapin SS are my two favorite kei cars I could import here to Canada at the moment!

I live close to old town!! It’s so cool knowing u have one this trunks!!!!!

When I worked out at Beechcraft they had a bunch of the Mitsubishi ones out there. They had several pickups like that and they also had several seven passenger vans that used to go all over the plant. I'll bet if you know somebody out at Textron, you could probably pick one of them up for next to nothing because I know they still use them from

That looks cool!!👍🏽👍🏽

I've thought about getting one of these for around the house - I have an old beat-up geo tracker that may be used instead.

Love these, in the uk we had a home grown version i assume on license but badged as a Bedford 'rascal'. Got a bit of a following over here getting lowered and pimped.

Perfect car for a Rally's or Checkers double drive-thru! 🤣

Jake I’m gonna need you to get ahold of a Grumman LLV mail truck and compare the driving experience. Those babies do 92 HP and only occasionally catch on fire

Oh man I wish

Jake is the new Doug Demuro....but no mention of 'quirks and features'

Thank you for a great detailed review. Inner-city yes, like many compact cars. Highway not so much, had Sidekick think behind would hurt after half-hour of driving/riding. Thinking JR could use a couple for the WAREHOUSE. Work in a large warehouse thinking good substitute for golf carts. Cab forward - like Isuzu NPR box truck. OMG - why couldn't Bohemouth US car makers create one of these knockoffs.

Love to see how much you can load into it

So cool but I’d want the Subaru version

Awesome. Have almost same one. Just got in my channel and love the net you got on the back. Where did you happen to get that. Thanks ahead and great video

I'd drive it. What a Geekmobile! Kinda reminds me of the 60's dragster/muscle car L'il Red Wagon lol!

It looks like a tadpole. Cool.

I own a 1992 suzuki carry love this video

I'm thinking of buying one, have you had any issues with it so far?

I've been contemplating on getting one of these for my business, maybe a bigger one that can fit 4 people as my daily driver.

Glove Box is where the Sub Woofer goes.

Luv my Kei cars

Engine is a Goldwing motorcycle engine cut in half and thats a real half as the cylinder head gasket is a fit to the full engine of Goldwing. very light controls and maximum speed was "Denso" (end stop makers name of gauge).

Is this confirmed or your speculation? I'm asking only because I have had the same thought. A goldwing engine would do well in the acty. Shaft driven with electronic reverse.

@@garethdancer625 Interesting! Definitely some fabrication need to mount it but its something I've thought about for a bit now. A goldwing engine and its parts are easily sourced in Canada while the Beat engine (which is where I was leaning towards) is more of a challenge.

@@shane6961 The one I used was older 2 cylinder model and had a gearbox with actual reverse so do look at what you get before jumping in as the electric reverse will be more stressed (believe its run from starter motor)

does anyone know how big the cab is? would someone who is 6' 2 fit

Whenever I think about Japan, this is what I imagine them driving around in. Small small city cars. 👍

I love mine. I daily drive it and have driven it all over Texas.

That segment reminded me of the end of an episode of Wheeler Dealer where they present the subject car .

No subwoofer? Ha challenge expected

Wanna see somebody driving one of these mini-trucks get pulled over and have the officer completely weirded out because he went to the normal drivers side but there’s nobody there.

Just like the old traditional vans from the seventies and eighties before they started putting the wheels out in front of them like the aerostars

You don't have to lean like a motorcycle it's not going to tip over taking off roading you'll love that those things work wonderous

No run about 7080 tops but they're comfortable at 60 miles an hour

There are a handful of these made by different mfg; Honda, Suzuki, Daihatsu, Subaru, and I maybe Hilux(toyota I think), to name the ones I know of. Can anyone point me to a review/ comparison and/or good forum, website or group for info relating to parts availability, reliability, etc.. And of course the various options to acquire one here in the US, particularly in the desert SW. Needing one for my small farm, so need 4x4 and dump bed, AC optional. Thank you for any help.

How much did you pay for it?

Is it to small for someone 6 foot tall ?

Maita is heavy The Mitshubishi minica dangan is 1,300lbs And the Mitshubishi pajero mini a 4 wheel drive is 1,880lbs

Does it come in a Platinum Edition?

Yeah. Not showing this to my wife as a selling point. Die, sketchy, and crumple zone are used way to much.

It's safer than your motorcycle I can assure you of that

just why people are so strange, they're just perfect basic

Don't be a chicken but put your foot on it You act like you scared to drive it maybe you shouldn't take it off roading

The symbol of the invasion of Japan in the past. "It's the Rising Sun Flag!!!" The Rising Sun Flag is the same as the German Nazi pattern. I live with my thoughts.

Ummm, i don't believe that Japanese Imperial Flag is appropriate......
