日本の自動車整備士ですかつては毎日のようにこのモデルのアクティを整備しましたが、最近は見かけなくなりました遠い異国で元気に走ってる姿を見ると嬉しくて懐かしくて、涙が出ます😂

僕はH6年の4速MT Carry 4WDダンプを乗っています。4WDは長野県の冬の道でありがたいもので、2WDにしますとドリフトができ。再来年、車検の時に5速のターボ車に改造します。もちろん軽トラとして使っています、肥料や石、娘のチャリンコを運んでいます。

That is so exciting, congratulation. I just got my Honda Acty 1997 February 14, 2024. and my wife thinks I am crazy...Ha! Ha! I maybe. Thanks for all the videos and your travels.

I am Japanese and have never had the chance to drive on farm roads, but when I borrowed my cousin's micro truck and drove it, it was an incredibly refreshing and fun experience. Everything is practical and you can understand the meaning of minimalist design.

Hope you & Jen are well & staying safe. Recovered from a mild two week bout of Covid & feeling much better. Wish you all the best with your micro-truck. Seem to be pretty handy/useful vehicles as I've seen a few in my local area, also. You are like me, Exoman, as you take a thorough look/see before you purchase something. Take care.

I live in Japan and have one. You've gotta drive these things like you are riding a motorcycle. And if you have a head-on on bike you might get thrown off somewhere but in a 軽トラ you are as good as a can or sardines. I've had mine for 9 years now and I'm hooked, you can even drift in the f****ng thing. 4 wheel drive is a real plus where I live here in Nagano.

@osaume3466 8 ай бұрын

Japanese minicars are amazing. They are fuel-efficient and can run on rough roads because they are 4WD. And even if you get stuck, you can get out with three adults. LoL It's small, but it can carry a lot more than you'd think.

I'm so fascinated by how amazed you guys are of those little trucks there in the US! It's pretty common here in my country, the Philippines. And the best thing is, they're left-hand drive! Yeah, we drive on the right side of the road too. I wish Americans would get those tiny trucks here. We have a lot varieties of every brands here.

@bradaltemeyer4472 11 ай бұрын

looks like a good vehicle, most classic pickup trucks ride better with some load in the bed, just helps out/ and if it's snow and ice season sometimes a couple bags of sand is good to have around anyway.

@priceostia6292 7 ай бұрын

That thing is perfectly fits places like mountainous area doing farm. Usually mountain roads are very narrow and steep also muddy rough terrain. Most o KEI trucks have lower gear biased setting to climb up and down hills, if you have 4WD truck that’s even better. In Japan, farmers and all types of mechanics tend to use these, also a hunter. Coz they carry harvests same as farmers, i think that usage is more fitting to USA people.

The legal speed limit on general roads in Japan is 40km/h or 50km/h. Light cars are designed to Japan's own standards without the intention of exporting them, so if you don't drive at a reasonable speed, the ride will be unstable. I recently switched to a light car.

I had the opportunity to drive and work on a Mitsubishi mighty mite truck. It looked identical to the Honda's version. Mine was left hand drive 3 speed locked out at 20 mph not road worthy. It had seat belts and turn signals. The payload could handle 1700 lbs. 3 cylinder gas engine 8 gallon fuel tank. Bed folded down like yours. Have fun driving and using it.

Is it 4 wheel drive? I assume not, I'm sure you would have mentioned it if it were. I've been toying with the idea of getting a 4wd one. I hadn't considered the leg room aspect though. I'm 6'1" also and have long legs, I've ruled out regular sized vehicles in the past because my knees were nearly touching the dash.

If it helps, im 6'2" & my knee's are 1" from the dash. The van i have, has 6" of clearance
