I decided to make the purchase on a Dihatzu Hijet (CORRECTION does not translates to midget in Japanese) Climber Mini-truck, this one is a 1992, 7th Gen, S83P, 660cc Minitruck. The “climber” means it has rear axle lock. Amir has about 60 units in stock, he was very helpful.
Researching online I did find l lot of information, but Amir explains a LOT more than I knew, he has been in the business for 15 years. Plus if Bubbles in Trailer Park Boys has one, it HAS to be cool!
Don't forget you're buying a used vehicle, check it all out, they're over 25 years old! Some are in much better shape than others. Check for leaks, CV boots ripped, Loose suspension, Clutch slippage, clunks etc. Just like any used vehicle
S839 specs:
660cc 4 valve 3 cyl engine 48-53hp carbureted
weight: 1500 lbs
length 10'8" (128"). width 4'6" (54") w/o mirrors. Height 5'10" (70")
Load capacity 800 lbs
I purchased mine at Boeki USA, www.boekiusa.com has their updated inventory. Ask for Amir and tell them MOTOCHEEZ sent you!

I know there may be other videos of this.. but this is my Cheezy style!
More info (Wikipedia):
The Daihatsu Hijet (Japanese: ダイハツハイゼット) is a cabover microvan and pickup truck produced and sold by the Japanese automaker Daihatsu since 1960. Despite the similarities between the Hijet name and Toyota's naming scheme for its trucks and vans (Hiace and Hilux), the name "Hijet" has been in use for Daihatsu's Kei trucks and Microvans since 1960, over two decades before Toyota took control. "Hijet", when transliterated into Japanese, is very similar to "Midget", one of Daihatsu's other mini-trucks. The Hijet competes in Japan with the Honda Acty, Subaru Sambar, Mitsubishi Minicab, Suzuki Carry and the Nissan Clipper.

Shout out to Amir for really having superior product knowledge across a wide array of brands...especially his ability to address the subtle features of each truck!
Yes, he really knew these minis well
So he is real not a scamer right si can trust him ?????
Yes
So a mir is a guy i can trust i want to get a mini truck you balch for him ???????
I'm in Tokyo, have been for 28+ years.
The Kei trucks (Kei means "Light Weight") are great, cheap to buy, cheap to run, cheap to insure.
The engines are 660cc three cylinder.
For traction the Subaru are the best, because the engine is in the rear.
You can tell the older trucks by the round headlights, the square or rectangular lights are on the newer trucks.
I'm a carpenter, and I have a Subaru sambar Micro van, it's 10 years old and I plan on having it for a very long time.
You should get 100,000km out of the motor without any trouble, at 100,000 Km it's time to change the timing belt, other than that they run forever.
Great trucks!
Cheers from Tokyo!
Hi, thanks for the information. I considered the sambar but they do not come with an axle lock which I need for the terrain around here as you can see haha.
Well I'm in Tokyo so I don't need 4wd, but when it snows (yes it snows in Tokyo) with just good snow tires I've got more traction than most guys with chains, because the weight is over the rear tires.
You can get 13" rims for these trucks, so you can put larger tires on them.
Cheers!
True! I wish the 13" rims for this hijet we're available in USA. Hard to find except ATV rims
Sambar is great that has a body-on-frame, rear mounted supercharged 4-cyli, coil spring rear suspension.
However, Sambar truck with diff lock and supercharger is super rare.

Nice! I'd love to get one of them with both!
moves 40 a month, people drive from all over to buy...major US automakers struggle to make sales but ignore this market altogether. They just keep making trucks bigger and bigger.
Good point! I also think there's a market for new trucks like these in USA, they allow the smart car soooo
Yup. Pissed me off that Ford discontinued the excellent Ranger line - in a year that enjoyed 77,000 sales!! What idiot though that was a good idea? The Ranger had a rough start, but the last several years were great little trucks.
👍👍
That's why I love my 85 Toyota pickup. Light weight, 18 mpg city. All little trucks like this will make a comeback.
I had 2 Toyota trucks growing up in the 80s. LOVED my little 4x4 Yoda
An interesting feature: same bolt pattern as ATV's. You can run some fat little off-road tires on them. I know guys who use them to go ice fishing over trails.
You got a like from me just for the trailer park boys clip.
👍👍
That's probably why he got one
Love Bubbles!
Deeeecent!!
I was absolutely waiting for the Trailer Park Boys scene.
I’d rock one of those. Maybe make it into a little over night camper as well.
I want to too, check out "hijet Barbie" they're so badass!!
@@MotoCheez Or the "Bedford Bambi" they're hilarious.
😁😄😄
No thanks, for 4500 you could buy a used real truck half the age,
@@nickm7209 not one that is better made.
Glad I saw this! I've been looking for one of the Japanese Kei trucks since I worked at Yosemite in the early 80's; they used them as utility carriers and trash haulers, but all were made with left-hand drive. A dealer in Reno was selling them, but they were limited to 25 mph for some reason. I'll be keeping up with your progress. Thanks!
If it was limited to 25 miles per hour, they were the newer import trucks that could not be registered for the road. If it's over 23 years old you can register it as a classic.
I'd love to get one of these and do it up like a half-scale semi truck.. 3 cyl. Kubota diesel, twin stacks, cab markers, custom GMC Astro style chrome grille, and bumper... and itty-bitty duallys for the rear!😁👍
I bought my 1992 Suzuki Carry from Amir last spring. Amir is great to deal with, and I love my mini truck. I was going to buy a utility vehicle, and am so glad I didn't. I lifted it 2" and put 24" off road tires on the existing rims. The truck will go anywhere. It also will carry way more than it's own weight. Great video!
Thanks! I also did that to mine now, added front winch bumper etc. Here's the playlist. I'm up to part 17 😄 fun truck www.iihs.org/iihs/topics/laws/minitrucks
Cool , I want one .Best of luck with yours.Thanks for the info
easiest manual to learn on for sure, grind it up, no hurting the transmission. plus they're great all around. drove one on a farm job a few years back. loved that truck.
👍👍👍🔥
This is the same place I bought my kei truck from. I got a 1987 Suzuki Carry. The owner is a great guy, can't say enough good things about him or the trucks he sells. I got mine titled in NY, used it to do home renovations. Twenty sheets of sheet rock, lumber, furniture, you name it. So handy, so much more useful than my Tacoma for stuff like that.
Ahh, so NY you can register them, I have some people asking and I just saw a few ppl from NY that have, good!
Can it be registered in Florida? Could be an awesome little truck
Donnie Brookins 25 years or older imported as a passenger vehicle you register them as classic vehicles. That’s how it works nationwide as far as I know, you can google Registering Mini Trucks in Florida and see what folks say. I only know about what I and other locals have done with any certainty. Most of the trouble is the DMV not knowing what to do, a problem they have with almost all import vehicles.
👍👍
frailcolin
How does the heater and air work?
I used one at work and it ran great but it was a rust magnet. If you buy one undercoating is a must..
I plan on painting the frame!
LOVE these mini trucks! Saw one the other day running around Danbury, CT. They’re awesome- thanks for the video!
They're great! Thanks 😀🔥🔥
Love these things! Luckily I kept my 1988 Ford Ranger. Almost sold it once when I couldn't fix a stall problem. Worked on it over 2 years time before discovering a bad check valve in the fuel reservoir. Now it runs perfectly again!
People want a nice small pickup like those rangers! Simple easy to work on one!
I had a 93 GEO Metro, for school and work three cylinder, it sounded exactly like these truck HAHA, great on gas
Those are great cars
If you like those mini trucks you would love the next general size higher. Never seen them in N America but of course Asia, Africa & here in Bermuda is crawling with them. As much bed space as 1500 pickup, fold down sides, available with diesel, A/C, power windows, all kinds of goodies, gassers usually 1800-2000CC, some are duallys, fuel sippers.
I'll have to look them up, sound interesting. What I like about these minis is they're the size of the UTVs and great for trails offroad that cost 3 times as much
Doug Shirley
Oh, you mean something like the original vw bus and pickups
You recall the model name of the larger version?
Bongo?
For popping around town, or doing light work on a small farm they're great. And fun to drive.
I've been in Japan for awhile, when he turned on the road, my head was spinning.
Lol 😁😁
I have fond memories of driving one of these around the University campus I worked at, delivering mail. We never took them on the street, just stayed on the pathways between buildings. I was good to have a horn for the students who were walking slowly and not moving aside!
That's awesome! I might have to put an air horn. I have one kicking around.
I'm glad you did this video ive seen this guy advertising on Ebay and ive been wondering about the operation and more details of this market i know many people like them for private land and hunting
👍 that's why I did the video, there is not much info about them that I was looking for.
If I could register them where I live. I would be buying the van version of these.
👍
Sorry, not for sale...
Amir is a great guy! Great place to get a kei truck. He'll give you all the necessary paperwork to properly register it too (if it's old enough to be) and will help you out if you run into problems.
Agreed!
What are the price ranges?
$4000 and up, have more information in description.
Are you saying the newer ones cannot be registered?
@@grantprice1932 Generally no. Some places allow LSV registration, but if you are looking to register and title it for normal road use, it needs to be imported when it is at least 25 years old. You also cannot import a 22 yr old vehicle, wait 3 yrs, and register it. It will never be exempt.
I loveum, they're so no frills and analog. I love the little 80s model Toyota PUs for the same reason. No frills, cute and dependable
Yes cute and simple
Been wondering how to get my hands on one of these trucks. So practical for running around town and work on the farm. When I was a kid my Dad was in USAF. We lived in Far East for many years in the mid ‘60s thru 1972. My dad had one of the grandpas of these trucks. A 3 wheeled Toyota with a little 2 cylinder engine. Drove it to work and all over Okinawa. We had a blast in the thing!
That's friggen awesome! Those old 2 cylinders were 2 stroke!
Very cool video. Thanks for posting and have a nice day too.
ThAnk you. You as well
What a great little Farm Truck PERFECT! UNDER 5 GRAND DAMN!
👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥
Used these on a farming apprenticeship in Wilton NH. Great truck, we used it for towing veggies, carrying a bed full of rocks (NH sucks for farming because of rocks), and used it to buy tractor parts. We could do a u-turn on a street that would require a 3 point turn in my 1500. I know I would buy one if I own some land. Easy to work on as well, except the farm had one with a carbonator, with a little bit of studying I learned the system and added the knowledge to my belt hopefully. But I for one am a big fan for these mini trucks.
Awesome info. Thanks.
I had suzuki carry when i was in high school 1983. It was fun and very light. I had to put couple sacks of sand to make it stable.
The Suzukis are a little more front heavy, which is why I wanted a dump Carry.. this could use rear weight, I'm not adding anymore to the front except another light maybe.
Been looking for one myself for a while this looks like a nice dealership to deal with
Great story telling, good reporting. How many guys are there who do NOT want one of these little trucks for getting around their land?
Thanks! I sure did!!
Thanks for the detailed review. I don't know why as a large build man (6' 360#) I find these mini pickups (and vans) fascinating. Before mentioned I was thinking "glorified side-by-side/UTV." Not for over the road, maybe a great inner-city delivery truck. The next step up Suzuki Samari ($5k) then Haflinger - Pinzgauer ($10k-$20k). Would not have guessed these trucks held up so well for 75k miles (120,000 kilometers). Agree American brands gave up on not only sub-compacts but even compacts. Think 1964-70 Dodge A100 (2.8 slant 6, 100hp, 3-on-the-tree).
I've always wanted one. My neigh or has one set up for welding. Got a machine and spools. He swapped a motor in and did a bunch of other work though. He puts it on his gooseneck and tows it to the job. Uses it for tight spots. Pipeline to refinery to factory work. He does everything.
That is cool as hell! I've wondered if it could be flat towed because transfer case has neutral. Ulrtimate little work truck!
That blue truck with the yellow ramps looks awesome
They made that. Custom for loading docks, loading other minis
First I've been seeing several of these in my area, and then this video gets recommended to me.
😆👍👍 funny how that works!
These are ingenious little trucks.
Agreed
In the UK we have these including a UK made Bedford rascal van. They were converted into anything you can think of, I was lucky enough to check a very nice caravan (rv in your parts) . The most common are the panel vans, their engines are so high revving and really fun to drive. Must have been one of the first vans I drove helping a family friend doing deliveries for his butchering business. The load these can carry is crazy, for their size. Obviously hauling cement and hardcore in one is a no no.
Such awesome lil trucks, I want one!
👍👍
Amir seems like a cool, knowledgeable ass dude
👍 he was
Amir seems very honest and generous with his time. I liked this video a lot! Thanks :)
Thanks!
Had a Suzuki van in the Bahamas. 800cc sohc four banger. Simple, rugged, cheap and three quarter tons of fun. Great little truck.
👍👍👍
Dat Suzuki Alto Works tho. 😍😍😍
Great video 👍 I love those little trucks. These size trucks are all throughout Italy. If they would make them here I would buy them. Car manufacturers in the USA are missing a golden opportunity.
Thank you. Absolutely missing an opportunity! Hopefully someone will pick up on it with some money and connections to do something.
Dave D. Car manufacturers in the U.S. are basically retarded at this point. Sad!
Agreed people go crazy for these trucks and US car companies could care less
Correct. That's why the older ones are allowed and not the newer. As classics. Like the classic cars will not pass new tests either..
@thor j That is the reason the big 3 keep foriegn competition out of our country. Those 3 wheeled bikes are death traps and those too won't pass any safety crash protection.
My dad used to have a 1981 Suzuki ST90k pick up in the early 1990s (In England). It had an 800cc engine. It was great fun!
Nice!😁
We had one of these at one of my first jobs. Can't remember the make or model but it was an excellent little truck. 4x4 high/low with a locker in the rear and a 5 speed. It was a manual transfer case the but locker was electric. It was so convenient for setting CM pheromone puffers in the orchards because it fit down most rows and had plenty of bed space for bulky but lightweight cargo. If I had more land I would have one. They're excellent for little jobs at the fraction of the cost of a side by side and have way more bed space. They're not near as capable off road but they're very practical if payload and bed space are more important than off road capability.
Well put! I
Awesome vid bud. I have the cash set aside and have just been waiting for the right one to come available semi locally
Sweet 👍👍😁
3:55 there you are!
😄😄😄👍
Very informative. Thanks for taking the time to make this vid.
😄😄👍 thanks!
I used to live in Japan when I was in the Air Force, 1985. I love these trucks. I had no idea that you can buy one here. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for your service!
That is awesome I didn't know we could even find those here in the states, I want one for our hobby farm! Thanks for a great video!
Will work great for that!
Lots of people sell them. I used to sell them. Great little trucks.
Michael McFearin lots of farmers in the Midwest use them.
I don’t know where you’re located but I definitely recommend Duncan Imports in Christiansburg VA. The cars they sell are rock solid and almost museum quality for the best price.
I saw their website. They were a bit far for me to drive. Looked like good inventory
I'd definitely daily one of those so bad ass!
😁👍
For 4500 you could buy a used real truck half the age
Trust me no you wouldn't. I love mine but 45 kph and it's winding out. Tagging them as a normal car isn't possible either. Mines farm use so I run around the country on it.
I did daily drive one for 3 years, it is great. Yip 45mph it is wound up tight.
Mine has hits 60mph GPS confirmed with 24" tires, cruise at 54mph... On flat of course. when the stock tires are on a used to read out and run out of RPMs, I think the bigger tires definitely made it go faster oh, but it did lose a little pick up.
I like that they come with everything...
👍👍👍
We have this Suzuki carry mini truck since 2004 and until now still drive like new. Nothing change...
Excellent, thank you for sharing.
I've been looking into these for use in the mountains above my house. Like you, I figured why but a UTV when these can be had for less money, and made street legal. I do firewood for the neighbors in the mountain, and would like something bigger than my atv with a trailer. Looking forward too see what you do with it, and how it runs.
They're great for that. I have a whole playlist in the description. Thanks
You can get a hitch for these with a receiver and have I believe three different ball sizes. You do have to drill two holes in the frame to a mount the hitch.
@laneclaypool8005 back when I bought this a really wasn't any options It's 5 years ago I actually made my own 2-in receiver
In my wife's country of the Dominican Republic they use those trucks everywhere. Not uncommon to see bananas piled up past the roof. And when traffic is deadlocked, they drive on the sidewalk. Great video
Haha, that is cool information thanks for sharing
Yup yup i know how crazy they are in Dominican R
I lived in Japan for 2 years. I got to drive one of these for awhile. They are great, and the bed was the best part. Why we can't get this type of bed on trucks blows my mind.
I used the Mitsubishi mini trucks when I worked at the state prison all the time. They would fit on the sidewalk and go though through the walk though gates. I liked them because they had heaters and it beat driving a John Deere gator around in cold weather with the rain and snow.
Sweet! That's why I chose this over my Polaris ranger! Some people hate on it because it's $4500. Try buying a UTV with half the options. 😄
1500 lbs 47 hp not bad at all really sad we don't make these.
Namaste, in India there is a whole category of these light trucks starting with TATA ACE. It was primarily made by Tata Motors Limited (now owner of Jaguar- Landrover) to replace finicky 3 wheeler cargo auto rickshaws. Tata Ace has created a new segment and new trucks are priced between 2.25 and 3.35 lakhs INR ( 3200$ to 4800$). Common specs Engine capacity is 1400cc, output 70 hp and it shares engine parts with other TATA passenger vehicles so parts are cheap and its very easy to maintain. These mini trucks are road legal in all Indian staes and only drawback is, they are overloaded many times with inexperienced drivers driving them on already congested Indian roads.
Heat information, thanks! I searched and didn't find any available here, they look pretty nice.
I have a light truck too.
My one is a HONDA ACTY.
It's very useful car on my job.
I love my light truck.
Good luck.
TY, he had some Acty's there. Very nice trucks but were more $$
Looking forward to more videos on this little truck!
👍👍 thanks
We need these in the US, better than the ATV’s and golf carts ... in Peachtree city(Georgia), golfcarts are legal to drive on public streets... these mini-trucks would be even better with the closed cab, ac or heat and an actual bed to haul little stuff. Especially if you have a farm or small store.
I love the way the bed has multiple ways to open from the sides.
Big truck manufacturers like Ford, Chevy & Dodge would lobby the government into outlawing these gems if anyone tried to sell newer ones. True that they aren’t great on crush tests but so does the mini fiat and smart cars.
I agree, they'd have to make the cab a little larger too. They have an extended cab of these too on the newer version
I love kei trucks
a lot of guys in my hometown use these and I have sold tons of 1st gen Mazda rx7 alloy wheels..for changing up to a 13 inch wheel..they are a 4x110 bolt pattern hard to find anywhere else you just have to machine out the centre hole to fit the Mini truck..thanks for sharing this video..these little trucks are Cute
I saw the old Mazda rims would fit offset good too? What they getting fir a set of 4?, hard to find now. thanks!
I used to drive a Diahatsu, when I was in the Coast Guard. Those things are fast and the four wheel drive is great!
🔥👍 nice!
In Puerto Rico, they can't afford ATV's so they use old school Suzuki Samurais as farm & off-road vehicles which in reality are better options because of their increased cargo & towing capacity and the fact that their cheap. They usually buy 2 at a time (a non-runner for parts).
I love the Suzuki samurais, as you can see I have to. They're getting very hard to find here in the states and price them are about as much as I paid for this mini truck now in poor shape
I have always wanted one of those Toyota Hiace vans.
👍👍
So do i
Where I'm at in rural Japan, almost every family has one of these. I plan on picking one up sometime this year to use for farming and hunting. They're great on dirt roads in the hills.
That's great! Please let me know when you do
This is the video that got me hooked on Motocheez.
You answered my question of getting one of these registered for CT! Would be a fun little truck to take down some trails and a good fishing truck. Better than taking my giant f150 everywhere. I actually might get one now.
I'm loving it! Sold my Polaris xp800, no regrets.
@@MotoCheez awesome. Definitely think it would be a cool little truck to have
🔥🔥🔥👍😁
i was waiting for someone to use that clip from trailer park boys
👍👍👍👍
they have a kei truck in tpb? what season and episode?
The last season a few times but last episode too
Instant like for throwing the bubbles clip
Had three similar to these purchased as a lot a from an auction - all left hand drive - took for ever to resale them mostly because none were 4WD.
Least hand too! I'd bet if you were in FL they'd sell fast. Somewhere flat
i was watching a gun video and this came on next. now i want this truck
Lol!!😄😄
In the Philippines it's converted to left hand drive and they are imported from japan cut in half to evade import laws.
Sounds similar to how Australia is.
How do you convert LHD? Is dashboard available? or just do without?
I just left it RHD, there must be a way though.
@@ModMINI The dashboard is cut in 3 pieces or 2 pieces depending on the design and rearranged. The mechanical stuff is designed to be left or right hand so minor welds are just needed. I have a van that's converted but I can't take pictures right now am on another country.
Here in Domininan Republic, we have lots of it, converted to LHD.
have fun!
👍
Cool ..buy of the century ..😉
*_DECENT!_* 😎
growing up, not quite 40 years ago there was a shop that bought & sold Suzuki trucks, & the little jeep looking ones, he made a trip once a year to buy parts for, and he sold the parts all over the USA, but these old Suzuki trucks were running around everywhere, most had 2 stroke 2 cylinder, a few had 3 cylinders engines, I have no idea what happened to shop, but when I rode by 10ish years ago, it was closed. but always loved them, drove a few, but never owned any
Cool, what state? Ive seen the 2 stroke ones in video, they sound like snowmobiles!
Guy had shop in NC, but once upon a time a huge amount ran around VA, and NC, I guy drove a black one with mag wheels, it had dual stacks, crazy part was radiator hose to connect exhaust to stacks, I kid you not, it did burn a hole through, but saw it for years, the little shop, I hung around as a teenager and into my early 20's until I got too hooked on horsepower, and Harleys. I still want one so bad I can taste it. Lol.
Haha. Whatever works, but radiator hose for exhaust?? Buy one! 😎
Couldn't believe it either, but wasn't mine, and 20ish years ago. There may be a seller in VA, saw 1 add last year, but not drove there to look around. Probably 50+ miles to car lot advertising them.
these trucks are amazing we have 3 at a greenhouse business and they are great, we have custom beds on them so we can carry tons of stuff. they are great for off road too if you get a 4x4
👍 awesome, thanks for the input 😁
One of the 1st vehicle's I ever drove was the Bedford version of these about 33 years ago and it nippy as hell
You can get a left hand version from Korea, if ppl are averse to right hand drive cars.
Hmm, they'd probably sell better.
i was wandering about that, are they japonese import? im in uk and we've always had them right hand as per usual here. i cant believe he gets hold of so many. how many million must there be in japan?
Yes Japanese import! I'm sure they have a lot of them, they have to get them off the road the older cars there is a fine or something as they get older work it's more expensive so they have to get them off the road
I speak Japanese, hijet doesn't mean midget. Just a name. These are great little trucks, especially if 4x4. Just don't have a wreck.
I learned that.. got that info off Wikipedia
Japanese don't have a word for miget but they do have a symbol for it. It's just really small.
@@centerspike6613 661 wouldn't stand for an area code in Kern county would it?
I'm guessing Hijet is a combined word between Hilux (what the Toyota pickup is called in Japan) and Midget. Hijet = hilux+midget.
The high jet is Toyota witch i knew
Love your Mini truck videos.
TY
I lived in Misawa Japan from Sep 1984 - Sep 1988 (4 years). These trucks were really popular in Japan. Over there you can drive on the streets. Of course, the public streets are much more narrow. They must be good little trucks because there were so many on the roads. Never drove one.
That's awesome. I'd love to visit someday, I hear it's pretty nice
He should’ve thrown in a new set of tires as much as he was squealing them! 😄
Hahaha! It's ok, I ordered the lift and tires already.
MotoCheez looking forward to seeing it!
👍👍👍🔥🔥
Kei truck FTW. The one to have is the Subaru Sambar, certain models of them ( The XV) come with supercharged 4 cyls
I love those, but they don't come with rear axle.lockers. I need that for my land terrain.
Now I want to find one with a supercharged 4 cyl!
😄👍👍👍👍
@@ezralord4901 look up piggio porter thy do a 1300 16 valve efi engine model very fast
Diff locks are available on all of the brands. My Sambar has it.
those are way too cute and fun
We had a couple in the service. They were governed to 25 mph. Above that, the ignition would shut off, and if you kept your foot on the gas, all the gas would end up in the oil pan. Never hold the throttle against the governor.
Nice, the ones newr than 25 years old have to be to be legally brought here. This one isn't governed.
Pretty crazy expensive for a 25 year old vehicle, but I suppose as they have to specially imported the supply is very low
It's apart of the import fees and all the bulkshit permits to import
I've been looking at getting one of these for a while to throw a lift on and just play with in general. Very interested to see how this goes.
I already ordered tires and a lift 😄
U can look at Tata ace...just Google it
those lil' trucks are awesome light duty work trucks. Great for the farm & for light city jobs.
Agreed!
I paused and subscribed at the part when Bubbles yells if you wanna see some power. Classic. lol
Lmaoooo TPB rules!!!
The coast guard used to have some for larger bases.
I can see how they come in handy for something like that! fit anywhere and cheap on gas. I saw Cushman had a 2wd version, wonder who made it...
The Suzuki carry used to sell in the UK called a rascal.
These must be from Japan, it'd be interesting to test with a gaiger counter!
I'm loving all the information everyone has on these. Had another guy say even if irradiated wouldn't be only a minute trace because of the type of meltdown it was... But still hahah
@@MotoCheez your tomatoes get irradiated to kill bacteria, essentially that's what an x-ray is too, but having radioactive contamination is very different, means you might inhale a tiny bit of cesium and get thyroid cancer. I doubt it tho, US customs is pretty tight for that sort of stuff apparently!
I'm enjoying your channel, this video got me here, cheers buddy, keep at it!
Thanks for the info and watching 😁
👍
The Bedford Rascal was a re-badged Suzuki Carry, the Bedford marque was the truck/van division of GMs British arm, the cars being Vauxhalls. Very popular back in the day, for some reason it always seemed to be gert big blokes driving them!
going to check this place out in a few days.
Awesome! Ask Amir for.your MOTOCHEEZ discount!
Ah.... my old Daihatsu HiJet..... loved it. A week after I got mine , I had a tyre slashed... had to leave the van behind as I could not find the spare.... it was under the 'shotgun' seat!!!!
👍👍

i the piggio porter is the same thy use 1300 cc 16 valve for cylinder injection suzuki engine and are very good and pull with a load up as good as any larger van i have one but the down side is the road tax is the same as a ford transit £ 238 a year and the insurance is not cheap u can run a transit van over a year for around the same cost here in the uk now if thy came with a hayabusa engine that would be sex on wheels
👍👍👍👍
here in texas you can't make them street legal and that sucks. i friend bought one got it inspected got tags on it drove it everywhere for about 5 months it was a mitsubishi 4x4 right hand drive then one day he got stopped they pulled his plates right there on the side of the road towed his truck. he had hell getting his truck back he took the state to court to get his money back for his tags. it sucked it would run 75 mph got over 50 mpg a/c heat. and 2 days later i got a call my truck was in. i already paid for it so i had to take it but it wasn't a week later i had it sold so i got lucky.
Aww, that sucks! There are a lot of them over 25 years old registered legally in CT, went through inspection process at DMV ect. . Must have been the newer ones? Has to be over 25 years old to technically be allowed to be registered because of safety standards. You'd think being so efficient they'd allow them here. Has to be as safe as a smart car!
@@MotoCheez i don't remember the year of the truck but your right and i'm going to check into it. in 2007 is when we had out trucks but i don't think they had that 25 year old or older law back then.
Yeah. The less than 25 year old are supposed to be 25mph speed limited, like golf cart
@@MotoCheez i'm going to check into it again and i choice the mitsubishi because it had the highest top speed and it had the sliding steering wheel. flip one level and the wheel and pedals would slid to the left side
Nice. Didn't know that. Each one seems to have one advantage over the other lol
I see one of these every day driveing down the highway , it has duelies on the back axle . Don't know what the guy uses it for , but it sure looks cute , and he never has cars lined up behind him , so it must keep up the speed limit ( 100 kph )
