I've been living in Japan for 30~some years... up here in the countryside your kei truck is like your calling card. Easy to see who's coming from afar. :-) Just replaced my old DB51T (1990) with an '04 63T, the difference is staggering... really improved. Not a big fan of the soulless e-power steering, but it is what it is. One-owner and about the same km's as yours (23k/km) really mint. Runs and drives like new. Installing a new stereo system: there is provision for speakers in the doors but you're gonna have to drill baby drill, at least on my HD-spec farm version they never envisioned the ojisans rocking out. lol. Nothing insurmountable. Tweeters for the dash. Nice videos, great to see the perspective from That Side. Cheers.
A local charity organization (MS Society) that runs a bike-a-thon used a handful of these mini-trucks and vans to sweep bike trails (crashes, falls, flat tires) hauling bikes (tie-downs helpful) and riders to next rest stop (normally 10-miles apart) for repair or transport.
Just an FYI. All North American radios are made to tune to even frequencies. Such as 560 kHz, 756 kHz, etc. Everywhere else, radios are made to tune to odd frequencies. Such as 559 kHz, 755 kHz, etc. There’s many opinions why; however, it is a Ham Radio thing from the early days of of Radio in general. Certain frequencies will perform in a prolific way should the “Band” Conditions be good. And that varies due to Sun Spot conditions, Ionosphere conditions, etc. That’s just scraping the surface. But during these conditions sometimes day or night, Radio Stations in North America and in the EU Countries will interfere with one another if they shared the same frequency. Therefore the offset is necessary to prevent such interference, although the frequencies would be more like USA 560 MHz, and the EU would be 557 MHz; thus eliminating any interference regardless of the time of day or night.

I'm not sure but I think this fellow is in Canada. You can get mini trucks in the USA, imported from Japan, but they all have to be over 25 years old minimum. There are dealers in the east coast (New Jersey) and west coast (Washington) who specialize in the importation of Japanese RHD vehicles.
I would like to own one of this truck here in the US..I own one of this truck back in Philippines... I drive it around the island when im on vacation ,fun to drive little truck.
Nice video! But I would like a video done going through the complete process of purchasing a mini truck from Japan from dealership and the importation shipping and clearing customs and all taxes and duties to legally bring one of these vehicles into this country! I believe there’s a 25% customs clearance tax alone on the total purchase price of one of these trucks! Is this true?
That single-DIN radio looks like it could be replaced with a double-DIN simply by sacrificing the little storage compartment below it. I'd run a small amplifier behind the seat, and there are lots of places for a set of decent stereo speakers.
I am curious if conversion from RHD to LHD is not allowed? Because all the mini trucks in my area are converted, not allowed to drive RHD here. Nice video walkaround by the way.
Hello, I was looking into importing one of these into BC. I heard rumor that the headlights are not DOT or E1 rated so cvse here has been issuing tickets for re-inspection. Do you guys got a work around?
Thanks for the video. I'm just starting to look at these K trucks ( I think that's the slang for them). Anyways can give an idea on how survivable they are at highway speeds? I see that some say they are a death trap. Are there any models that work at highway speeds at all? I'm thinking that is a limitation from the Japanese government.
Thanks for all the videos you do. I'll have one, one of these days. Is there any change in the 2004 and 2005 models when they become available here in Canada?
This is because there is no such thing as LHD Japanese mini trucks. The ones you see in Quebec (and elsewhere) have been converted from RHD to LHD. If you saw what they had to do to convert them you would feel safer in a RHD. The ones out of the Philippines are mostly converted as well. We really focus on the Off-road market anyway as the bigger issue with these on the roads is that they are only 50hp not that they are RHD
Use your phone with a altec Lansing Bluetooth speaker blow you out of that little truck sound great if you in vest in the full set put the bass speaker and to of the Altec Lansing 2 or 3 in there louder then you will ever need clear sound 16 hours with out charging them so set up a charge port and you can jam for ever
why dont they make small pickups in the US anymore? trucks just get bigger and bigger. Its fucking stupid. These little mini tracks are perfect. They should be making them here.
Not really. There are some out of China I have seen. And from Japan there is what is called a deck van which is basically the mini van version of these with a tiny little box on the back.
Deck van is what I’ll be looking for, with tracks of course😀 Will need something to take the wife and kids out in, or get tracks for our Mitsubishi Outlander sawc

I had a Sony that has a switch that could be thrown to change the frequency spacing. I wonder if that radio has a locality switch?
Thank You Ssooo Much ! I've always wanted one as a work vehicle ever since I first saw them about 10 years ago.
I want one; love it.
I've the db52t for the past 10years next week I'm getting the2003 Suzuki Carry with only 42k 🥳🥳🥳🥳

What kind of safety rating do they have? I think those are so cool.
you are the crumple zone, that is why they aren't sold here new for on road use.

Good video, for sure
Thanks
What are the deferent between the DA62T and DA63T specially there chassis? Thanks sir in advance.
Do you ever come across left hand drive many trucks?
One day maybe 😊
It'd be cool if you could turn the two side gates into detachable ramps to say get a small atv onto the bed?
That's a brilliant idea.
Thanks for all the videos you do. I'll have one, one of these days. Is there any change in the 2004 and 2005 models when they become available here in Canada?
No major changes coming for 04/05. This model was all new for late 2002
Nice truck.
It would be great if they were left hand drive.

Are you ever planning on getting LHD trucks and minivans from the Philippines?
Nice truck! Any chance we could get these lhd from the Philippines?

The carry mini bus is super cool to drive , 4 or 5 gear I cant remember
why dont they make small pickups in the US anymore? trucks just get bigger and bigger. Its fucking stupid. These little mini tracks are perfect. They should be making them here.
They don't make them because Americans will pay $40+K for big trucks, there's a waiting list now. Why would they bother?
@@active6302 I know, but it is crazy that people keep buying those trucks. I dont know how dumb people have so much money.
What is the top speed for these trucks without stress f the engine to much?
Comfortable cruise is 70-80kph
I would like to own one but don't know what they go for
anywhere from 1000 to 4500. Very, very reasonable. The ones that make their way over to the US generally have low mileage. They're pretty cheap.
congrats bro for getting married

How much do these trucks cost to buy ? Average
Really depends where you are from. Something similar to this would probably be $8000 US average
Are these legal to drive on the road?
Depends on where you are.
Washington state
I believe they need to be 25 years old or older to put them on the road in most us states but it does vary
