Errr.... I don't know.... but I want one.
Sadly colorado doesn't plate them for road use. Yet the city workers get to drive their little suzuki mini truck thing wherever they want.

Mitsubishi Minicab. They're kei trucks with a max displacement of 660cc or something thereabouts. They aren't taxed as heavily as regular sized vehicles in overcrowded Japan.

Don't laugh at the 660cc limit -- manufactuers make very quick roadsters in the kei class pumped up with superchargers and turbos. Check out the Suzuki Cappuchino for example.

they are available in 2wd and 4wd versions. All the Japanese manufacturers make versions of them. Where I work we used to have Tiger trucks - rebadged versions of one of the micro trucks. Ours at work died a fast premature death due to ham fisted workers and salt application in the winter so thick I called it the Bettis salt flats - the salt destroyed the bodys in one year. The salt also ruined the ezgo electric carts we had for the same reason. It was so thick more people fell due to the salt than from ice or snow.

Now that is cool, wonder how many turns of the rubber band it take to get it moving. Front of a 240z and rear of a Porsche Targa.
I seen one once at a circus, like 8 clowns got out of it and were honking bicycle horns :lmao:

That would kinda cool, Paint them the same color and close off windows on van and give it that bullet train sort of look when attached.
