I learned about Kei Trucks today.

They can be found for sale in the us if they're over 25 years old (bc us laws)

They are so cute.

Honestly would be a great affordable way to have a truck.

Articles even say they're less carbon footprint.

The ones I see listed online don't have a lot of mileage on them- we're talking less than 40k here.

Some of these 90's ✨gems✨ and earlier don't come with AC or radio. Lmao.

Aka. they're literally meant to be farm/work trucks.

They seat like two people unless you can get hands on a van version. The better option imo.

They're imported so older models may have the driver's side on the right.

The manuals have more typical 4-5 gears (that automatics only have 3!).

The Honda Acty is the only one that is not 4wd... typical lol

Rear-wheel drive and 4wd options are Subaru sambar, Daihatsu hijet (later rebadged as a Toyota), Mazda scrum, and Suzuki carry.

They can need a lot of maintenance (because of age to rubber parts) and new parts take time or cost to arrive.

Lots of caution driving them on modern roads.

Looks like they require premium gas, which is the norm in the countries they're imported from.

The Kei trucks you can buy legally in the US.

Care tips

But y'know. They're cute and I want one.

[things-about-cars-in-posts]

show me a transmasculine car. but a little flamboyant with it.

Well, I pretty much literally asked for this.

So.

To me, a transmasculine car must be a car that underwent some sort of process -of transformation- that resulted in an aesthetic difference between before and after, right?

And that is very much a thing in cars. I mean, you don't even need to know about cars to know people transform them in all sorts of ways, right? But what I intend to talk about specifically here is front-end swaps - people smacking completely different front ends onto their cars to make them look a way they deem preferable - or sometimes just to save money over the original parts. Such is the story of the Sileighty (or sil80), which is a Nissan 180SX onto which drifters that fucked the front end put Nissan Silvia parts instead because they were cheaper and lighter. Before and after:

Now, potentially this may already satisfy your request, but let's keep going anyway: From the opposite swap -putting a 180SX front on the Nissan Silvia- nicknamed Onevia, before and after...

...was born an idea: see, some people thought what the Silvia really needed weren't the headlights from the 180SX, but the ones from a decade younger Honda Odyssey minivan. I don't know why they thought that but it turns out the custom bodykit they created around the concept proved them right.

Now, since as you might have gathered before the Silvia and 180SX front ends are interchangeable, this custom bodykit also bolts right up to the 180SX. Let's see the before and after on that...

Yeah, I feel like we're pretty close.

Although, for the sake of completion, I must add that Nissan also pulled this "different front end for different body styles" trick with the Skyline and its wagon version, the Stagea - and many Stagea owners felt the need to rectify that by installing the Skyline front end on their cars, resulting in the below before and after:

And now, on a completely unrelated note purely because it's pretty rare you get an excuse to bring this up, while some say the 90s Subaru Sambar Dias -also called... well, many other things, really- was the peak of personal transportation (it's me, I'm some), someone else at Subaru clearly thought it wasn't classic enough - hence the special Dias Classic edition (as featured in Love Hina!), which I'm sure was right up someone's alley.

I'm not that confident in my awareness of what I just went on about, so I would very much appreciate some feedback and, of course, reblogs to make the stupidest poll I've seen in quite some time get even bigger a sample size than it ever deserved.
