Luckily the plug for it was easily accessible and mounted to a bracket so you could plug and unplug it with one hand.

It cost $12,800 out the door in Indonesia, driven it 6 years, not one rattle or problem. OK, had to replace the round battery on the remote door opener, cost me 50 cents. You can have all those $70,000 SUV's. I will stick with my trouble free Suzuki. BTW, gas here cost under $2.00 a gallon. Indonesia has its own oil and sells it to its citizens instead of selling it for profit like the USA and OPEC nations.

EPA won’t let it pass emissions requirements because they have tied emissions to the footprint of a truck. That’s why we don’t have small trucks anymore.

[@GAJake]

I talked to the traffic commander for our sheriff's office at a community event. He said electric cars are the most dangerous vehicles on the road. The batteries make a small electric car as heavy as a ford F-350, making them super dangerous in a crash. He also said if they catch fire the take forever to go out because of the battery burning.

[@hilmanscooter2136]

I just bought one, in my country it's called Hilux Rangga. I got the 2.4L turbo diesel one, same like a usual Hilux engine.

[@johnpatricklim4509]

In the Philippines....its called Tamaraw FX....can be made into a cheap SUV or as a truck....

[@twlch63]

Hey Scott , would love the champ over here in the UK but doubt if we will ever see it, the truck is so cheap as it is as basic as a 1930’s truck, it has one Sun visor, just a radio etc etc

[@glennso47]

As long as the radio works, it’s fine. 😂

[@frankcherry3810]

I was looking at one here in Thailand, a long bed for 18 grand. It comes with fold down sides.$13,000 for an entry level No 10 grand ones anywhere

[@magamike1800]

Base model in Thailand is 13000USD.

[@-aid4084]

If it comes to New Zealand and I had the money which might soon since I'm bouda do some job searching, I would definitly buy one, maybe with a shell for the bed.

[@extragoode]

Nobody wants to rent EVs because Hertz' charges a huge refueling fee if they're returned with less than 80% charge, people don't want to navigate a sketchy charging network in an unfamiliar location, and there are still no public charging stations at many US airports.

[@matsblom7314]

Well When the battery go dead shorted inside ,,All you have to do is buy a new battery

[@darryladams519]

Does it come with a manual transmission?

[@bentonbain2916]

The Toyota Champ/IMV-0 has 2 gasoline options and a 2.4 lt diesel and other option like cargo sides for the flat bed. It is a right hand drive for the Asian market, for the Americas we would need the left hand drive. You can actually put a piece of 4x8 plywood flat on its bed which to me makes it a real pickup or small truck.

[@dcboy8769]

...Scotty said, as thousands and thousands of Maverick buyers wait for their Maverick to be built. I've been waiting just over 7 months for my XLT and just recently got my VIN and build date for the week of April 8.

[@junitono1]

If it came to the states, it'd be my daily.

[@patricksittre2847]

Agreed adjust the valves Scolyfield. Hope I didn't botch your name too bad. Sorry. Valves over time wear tighter giving valve overlap making fuel go through the engine. The O2 sensor sees a ritch mixture and the computer lessens the mixture to get -5 fuel trim. But, big but. On most modern gas engines the valves are not adjustable and do not need to be because they have hydraulic lifters. Check what kind of lifters then do what Scotty says.

[@AndreS_-df2nw]

If they can't bring the truck, bring the bed! Sell it with retrofit kits for older trucks and sell it as a trailer building kit. Sell all the accessories for it, too. If had a tacoma & the bed was beat up, this would be a great option. How much would the flatbed base cost for a trailer build? $300? The rest of the kit could be done relatively cheap too.... then acessorize- sides, box, whatever.

[@stevenmqcueen7576]

Hey Scotty, how does a truck that isn't sold in the U.S. kill the Ford Maverick?

[@rbnhd1144]

Some of the pics I see show the Champ with the sides and back gate folded down for easy loading, Its based on the Hilux, Huhhh id love a Hi lux over a Tacoma.

[@knucknuck]

From what I have read they don't plan on selling them in the US.

[@Nordy941]

I thought about this before having run a business myself. Every type of business is different when it comes to profit margins. I’d assume you’d want at least a 50% margin when doing something as complicated and resource intensive as building an auto mobile from scratch. I think some vehicles has a wider margin others such as pickup trucks vs sub compacts. I recently bought a 23’ Nissan Titan pick up for just under 50k. I assume Nissan cost can’t be more than 25k. They sell it to a dealer for 40k then the dealer makes a few grand off me too. I’m guessing completely.

[@littlerick3458]

Well it might be a nice video perhaps to talk about the real cost, margin and marketing expenses on the car industry

[@michaelsparrow8033]

Maybe not so much the US market itself: eg: Supoosedly the US has a 25% tariff on "small trucks" (2 seaters) since the 60s ...

[@MisterTengu]

Bolt a $50 chair to the bed and leave it to the consumer to remove it. I bet it would still sell like hotcakes.

[@frankbrowning328]

Good luck Ethiopia. Tractor trailers are diesel so how do they expect to move freight, heavy equipment, grain, sand,concrete, etc. I've never seen a Tesla cement truck mixer

[@CarysCorner]

Just like the kei trucks. You can’t get those in the USA to drive on streets until they’re 25 years old and only 1/2 the states allow them to be registered…

[@johnnorvaisas]

I had a 1987 Mitsubishi mighty max manual it was small but a great little reliable truck

[@rbms5660]

Mexico will be selling it but the only state that will allow it in will be Texas,Arkansas will also be allowing it to be driven on roads

[@capspik]

My first first year nissan Frontier was 10500 OTD

[@garyjensen3414]

When is the Toyota Scout truck that you have been talking about going to be "HERE"???????

[@loguncasiano2072]

Nope, i'm not buying any new electric because, they are too expensive. Still driving my 2013 Nissan Leaf until they cut prices in half. I love them. No maintenance. Other than tires wipers and Fluids. Still haven't done brakes yet.

[@mubaddagammoh4912]

Well scotty you did not mention how basic is the truck and how many HP , I doubt that it will sell in the US coz people look into how many options does a vehicle offer, it’s for the emerging markets meaning people drove motorcycles and scooters before buying this truck it is small, not much power and light

[@keithdrummond1003]

It's 12K to start, depending on what you want. It goes up from there. A lot.

[@josephpuisis7567]

There putting three options for motors on these things a 2.0 the 2.7 and 2.4 diesel turbo.

[@edwarddavid8314]

30k after dealer fees

[@mr.monitor.]

They don't exist in the usa

[@rbnhd1144]

I've always paid less than sticker for a Toyota, I cant understand why they get bashed on price, then again Id never pay sticker for any car.

[@Nick41622]

​@@rbnhd1144 But now you have to pay the advertised price. Take it or leave it.

[@jessewynne8193]

4 amp draw sounds like the starter wires are touching or corroded causing current that where I would least start point

[@James-ez9gc]

I just went to “capitol”toyota of Salem, OR and asked when this would be available and the short answer is NEVER! 😂🤣😂

[@Dirty17366]

I love yah, Scotty. I learn and get get a good laugh. Thank you

[@jamesclayton3388]

Range anxiety and charging anxiety too!..😂

[@SmokinZen]

Scotty my 2001 honda accord 2.1ltr I just changed the radiator with a Murray radiator I put everything back together and put a new radiator cap I bought from Honda. The car began to over heat. Then I changed the radiator cap back to the old 13lb cap it had and the problem went away and the car doesn't over heat. I am confused as to what is happening and I want to buy a new cap but I don't know what to get since the ones for this car look like the stock one?

[@drew.168]

Hertz stock price is 7 dollars down from 30 in 2021. Of course they are liquidating everything. Jacked rental prices through the roof. And even as more of a pro ecv person, they just dont make sense in a rental space. I dont know what they were thinking in the first place.

[@carlmoore4518]

Stupid that it is not available in the US...some of us only need a small truck for home project use - on the weekends or to run quick errands. Buying a $60K truck (or more) for such tasks seems ridiculous. Toyota promised us a $20K truck two years ago...still waiting!

[@STho205]

Honda CB motorcycles are 1200USD to 2000USD in Thailand...but no Honda CB in the US is less than $7000 ($8000 out the door). So don't expect this for less than 30k
