While I was in town yesterday I saw this little truck across the street, I knew you blokes would be interested so I went and took some picks for y’all. It be great for hoarding in those tight trails! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
You on a truck buying spree now...? JK. There’s one around here, maybe 10 miles down the road. It has “farm use” tags....
I liked your post but I need to say this before anyone buy's one of these. I had one of these "supplied" to me for driving around a military installation for 5 years. It is "EXTREMELY" cramped inside if your over 6ft tall and we played "HeLL" getting parts for it when something went wrong. Mine happened to be 4WD and when the brakes went, it took 5 weeks for pads. I could have swam them from Japan faster! My fuel pump also went, 6 weeks for that and then the clutch right after. If you consider this, just ask to see any maintenance records if they have them. I don't mean to bust anyones bubble at all but use caution. P.S. My heater sucked also...
Now Eric, I know that you know I ain’t gonna fit in that Mini Truck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Yea I recently spent some time with some bloke called T.Jeff Veal. Just kidding Jeff, I think I picked it up from multiple people. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
That little truck looks neat but it seems WeldrDave didn't think too highly of it. Not able to get parts would really suck. Yes, first thing I though of was how on earth would leoht fit in that cab?! He needs more room.
The only "positive" thing I can say about it is, it seemed to get 927 miles a gallon! No, seriously as my memory serves me it had an 11 gal tank and I never touched the gas cap for two weeks or more. But when I say anyone over 6ft tall shouldn't drive it, "I'm serious"! My Boot used to get caught under the brake peddle and sometimes couldn't get off the gas peddle, that's a real "B!T@# when you in close proximity with people and other cars. A few times I had to grab the e-brake cause I couldn't get my foot out.
I drove one in Aussie, to expand on what Horkn said. Nobody with a shoe size over 8 should drive it either
There were. Bunch of those around locaLy a few years back. Seemed to fit the bill for an off road UTV type vehicle, but they were being sold by individuals and small "mom and pop" shops. Couldn't get a straight answer about part availibilty, so I passed. Sounds like I made the right move, WeldrDave.
I rode shotgun in my buddy's Porsche boxster S this weekend for a pizza run. Seat all the way back, and my knees were in the dash. There's no way I could drive that car comfortably. That flat 6 sure sounds good though. Totally different role from the mini truck, but surely both are not comfortable to drive, especially if you are 6'4 240.
