Daihatsu
For my money, I'd get a Daihatsu HiJet Truck. These little trucks cost under $7,000 for a manual-transmission, two-wheel-drive base model, and prices don't exactly skyrocket from there — they're an incredibly affordable way to haul stuff around. With a HiJet, I'd suddenly be enabled in all the truly terrible motorcycle purchase ideas I stumble across on Facebook Marketplace and Copart. Can you imagine if I had a reliable way to get broken motorcycles home to my apartment? Sure, my roommates might elect to poison me in my sleep, but I'd have a fantastic time until then.
If I could get any modern kei vehicle, I'd get a Daihatsu HiJet truck. What would you go with? Do you stare over the Pacific at night, longing for a Daihatsu Copen, or would you want to haul your family around in a sweet kei van? Leave your answer below, and I'll pick out my favorite answers later in the week.
