1993 Honda Acty Review

[@idiether]

I love my 1993 Acty, we daily drive it and it keeps up on the freeway with no issues :) I like how brutally honest you are about these cause most people expect them to be super comfy and full size lol.

[@Chris-gj6ig]

I'm thinking of buying one would I fit? (I'm 5'11) I can't find anyone saying anything about the room in the cab

[@agostinoatallah1327]

@@Chris-gj6ig I'm thinking of buying one as well and from what I can tell (i'm also about 5'11") we're basically at the end of the spectrum of people that could sit comfortably.

[@aaronwheat5727]

What kinda prices you guys seeing? In my area they seem to be crazy priced like 9,500

[@aech_two_oh]

What top speed do you hit in it? I drive on the highway almost every day so I need a truck that can hit ~75 mph

[@nickm5419]

@@aech_two_oh kei vehicles REALLY dont like 60-70s+ miles per hour, 40-50mph is pushing it

[@AridersLifeYT]

6:15 - 10000% wrong. Japanese did not build these to be used, abused then thrown away. They are built to be over engineer and precise. Its common practise to thank the vehicle for helping you complete your work + its common practise to DAILY CLEAN your work vehicle in Japan while paying respects to it. :-)

[@bleachstain9785]

Well damn, my Acura must think I have Japanese heritage then 😂😂 I take care of that thing like it’s my second child

[@AridersLifeYT]

@@bleachstain9785 Its hard to find people who service the cars with genuine care. most people just drive it till it dies and then move on.

[@bleachstain9785]

@@AridersLifeYT if more people bought cars they were going to get attached to, or at least value beyond just transportation. Vehicles would be not only maintained better, but they’d be kept for much longer too

[@CanadianBriar]

I've still got my first car, and I started driving in 1997 :D And yes, it runs, and I still drive it.

[@sergiolaurencio7534]

We are not perfect but we take care of our 2007 honda accord and is a dream with 200,000 soom. We also take care of our ford a lot, because is a ford, doesn't mean is trash. Ford used to do excellent cars back them guys.

[@keithhooper6123]

As a kei driver for forty years,owning four TN550 Acty vans/trucks.,I found them incredibly practical,cheap to run,and reliable.

[@asiancajun0438]

stumbled upon this video while looking into buying my first car. (at this time, preferably a honda acty). I dont know what about it, maybe the way you described your longing a time you never saw, or maybe how you described the way the truck made you feel, it brought me back to when i had just gotten into cars seriously. A time where everytime i opened a video or social media post, i learned so much. A time where i was just an open eyed teenager who wanted to absorb as much info about cars as i could. I miss that time before the toxicity of some of the car scene. A time where everyone i saw was jsut so happpy to share about they passion about cars. Thank you man. definitely subscribing

[@CAGE9000]

Best vehicle review i've heard on youtube ever. Down to the point, detailed and overall pleasant. I'd honestly say almost as good as the old top gear withJC. Even though comparing the two your quality of review itself is better. Keep up the good work.

[@jordanw2900]

These oddball car reviews are THE BEST! Keep up the good content!

[@AridersLifeYT]

its not an oddball at all dude, you americans just didnt get the cool cars.

[@MrPanzerDragoon]

Yes, more of these please!

[@DannissanGTR]

Dude you hit it on the stop with the false nostalgia. Totally feel the same way. Great vid brother!

[@HighfivePeaceout]

I have the same truck but its a 1991. I love my little smile machine, I 100% agree with the video thx for posting 👍

[@hiljicardrawings3467]

mine never fails to make me smile every time i drive it. this is the first car i ever actually bought and i would not trade it for literally anything

[@justhesolution]

Sick review! And yes you were 100% pronouncing kei (軽) correctly 👍🏼

[@sheldonyoung2717]

[@scentadventure]

Yes! This was a great review! Looking at buying one but a van and you freaking sold me on it! I want am honest truck! Enjoyed this thanks!

[@edm3184]

Cool review..! Bubbles on Trailer Park Boys would be proud! (think his K was a Mitsubishi)

[@beezowdoodoozoppitybopbopb9488]

I was about to write something about the lost decade and inflation, but thankfully you touched on it. It wasnt all supras, gtrs, snd neon genesis evangelion. Thankfully they had those things though, something to appreciate during their hard times.

[@nightguy8555]

I think this is the best KZbin video and the most interested I’ve ever been in a channel

[@Gator1699]

We had heaps of these in the 70's in OZ I had a Suzuki hatch 550 motor in the 90's great little car I miss it.

[@dwaineskully6515]

Great video.. tick all the right boxes I share that nostalgic pain... New cars just aren't that great.... And I fear not experiencing a true simple man and machine era like this in our life time .

[@keithhooper6123]

Never found a problem driving,and I am 6ft 3in.Never noticed the pedals feeling odd.Never followed the "change gear"markings.Changed at lower revs.There used to be effective foot vents,allowing outside and straight in to the cab.I found I rarely needed to get status engine,and it easy to maintain.

[@beezowdoodoozoppitybopbopb9488]

Hows insurance?

Just came across your channel for the first time today and loved the video. You've earned a subscriber!

I love these reviews of very unique cars.

[@ajourneysaved4311]

I've seen a ton of them for sale in town. Considering that I don't need a big truck, I thought I'd check it out.

[@deliciouslifetv7362]

Dude you have a cool channel specially with that cool miniature kei truck … good job much love bro 😎 👍🏾

[@SgtStang]

Great review thanks man. I just picked one of these up for $700. Should be a decent flip. People are crazy over these things. 🍻 from 🇨🇦

[@wummrs]

Where tf did u get one for that cheap??? I’m in Canada too

[@MisterRichHarris]

This was a very good video, though I would at least spend as much camera time on the truck as you do on yourself. That said, you're a pleasant personality to watch, so absolutely no criticism there, only I would have enjoyed more "air time" focused on the truck. Again, I enjoyed watching you and your video, thank you for an excellent review!

[@h8GW]

He probably doesn't have a camera car, so no running exterior shots.....yet!

unfortunately not really doable because the acty engine only has 38 horsepower

[@SafepathUS]

Hopefully this is a little good luck for you 007 fan, if you're considering this great tuff little truck. You can't lose. 👍✅️ You can find some cheapest used good trucks like these on Japanese websites and thier related KZbin channel also has them showing the little trucks and very good condition like new. Even under the carriage, the vehicles go slowly over the camera to record how cleaner and newer the trucks are. ✅️👍 It's not a special thing, they're just more traditional in Asian countries. Comparatively, Like my parents were strict about traditions, tuff love, because honesty and disciplines in various ways was and always is the best ways to survive in life, especially the World War 2 years when they were only toddlers. (Germany was even spying on East/West to help get family to freedom from the communist East half). "Stealth", spying, disguise, "twins" to confuse", (or twins commonly known being 30% telepáthic🤔) and anything to save lives, was nothing new "back in the day." Like your 007 logo, "Every man wants to be James Bond" 😎 or so the joke goes. Some of us live parts of the James Bond lifestyle. 1 example = even though it took 15+ years waiting to have Tesla electric vehicles "EVs" open exactly behind our small town home improvements office, things just got much more interesting. Yes, it's no lie. "How did they know" 😳 🤔 Waiting 15+ years to actually see the world's fastest safest cleanest running Tesla vehicles open a store behind our 🏡 architecture office is exciting more than I'll admit. (Architectonics is what's called the study of science mathematics and art combined with the history of them which often includes hidden messages in various ways. Such as famous religious paintings 🖼 with hidden extra terrestrial beings if you simply fold the picture or other famous items in plain sight.) That tek competition drawing award alone started me discovering uncommon interesting things 🤔 😀 (I won 🏆 the NY state (US) tek schools competition in architecture and design years ago and Boeing Aircraft company top architecture office boss hops in my limousine part time job just as I graduated high school because I wasn't accepted invitations to visit top universities, so they approached me during the trip to the airport to be more casual. ). Time travel isn't a secret it just depends on how much you want to venture into unknown things. 😉 The mini electric vehicles are very popular more in Asia 🌏 too than most of our Western countries people realize. You can spend hours or often days accumulated after you notice how many hours repeatedly are used to collect important information, because you'll use many related hints to recall in other ways later. Being "across the pond" in the UK, as executives often say as they travel around countries to negotiate business. Hints of simple future "revealed" free cost energy = 2 cylinders of magnets 🧲 next to each other and blocking the bottom half makes it spin, very fast. Increase the size of your magnets cylinders to make as many things as possible 😀 😄 😉 That's all I have time for now. Hopefully you'll find something more than a great (common) durable reliable safe truck. Also I've never had an accident in over a million miles/kilometers because driving slowly the first year or longer truly sharpens your abilities to record your control of anything you've driving 🚗 🤔 and you can keep finding more cheap bargains because most people only search for a shorter time. "Patience is key 🔑 to learning everything" Traditions and virtues proves best life long results as we see many rapid changes and improvements in China even shocking to the world 🌎 Not propaganda just never lose your will to exercise everyday and helping others when possible like the good book says 👍 😊

[@mrbruhman8842]

I was interested on getting one and perhaps could anybody comment like their experiences with it too, like with mpg, dad looked at it and said “too narrow” and had complaints on how it would fair in a head on collision

[@keithhooper6123]

I had the 550c.f. Ones for many years.Incredibly reliabe,cheap to run,and easy to live with.Don't hesitate,but one.The forward driving position never worried me,and there's a cross beam behind the dash.
