I want to thank all my subscribers and wish you all a Happy Holiday season!
Thanks for supporting my channel by watching and commenting!
Without all of your support I definitely wouldn’t be making these videos.
Thanks 😊 🙏
Merry Christmas Mike !!!! have a nice Holiday.
Hey mate from Australia I would like to wish you and your family and merry Christmas and a happy new year hope you have a great day
Merry Christmas! Keep your videos comes you got such a relaxed and unique style.
Happy holidays from the Netherlands!
Hope you and your family are well and i'm looking forward to the projects you'll tackle next year.
About the kei trucks, although it is as flat as pooltable around here your videos still make me wanna buy one. Pretty rare here unfortunately.
Greetings from the Netherlands, Mark
Can someone plz tell me what state he’s in? Look like Pacific Northwest but not sure. It looks amazing.
If you run them across a scale, they have pretty close to a fifty/fifty front to rear weight distribution. And everything heavy is down low. So they are actually very stable.
Those woods look like a kids story book
I absolutely adore these little kei trucks, some day I hope to own one. I've always had the same fear as you that they're more of a novelty but it's good to hear that they have some performance to back them up.
Same as you I have always wanted one, yes they are a great secondary vehicle to have around, I use mine for taking garbage to the dump and hauling lumber and plywood, a full 4x8 sheet of plywood fits good in the bed.
Take care buddy and have a merry Christmas 😊
that and if u have dog 🐕 it looks like its driving lol!
They are awsome little trucks! We have one and I am so glad we decided to get it. It is the 2x4 variant because we don't have the 4x4 one here in SA unfortunately. Does ha e a 1200cc motor thou:D
@@Mikefestiva love these videos! I'm currently in the market for a Honda or Suzuki mini in Washington state. Was wondering where you and your brother went to get his and if you liked the seller? Thanks , Josh
@@joshpoe Hey Josh I bought mine from a private seller on CL but if I did it over again I would have just bought a stock truck from an importer like my brother did and do a few simple mods to the truck as time went on. Both the Honda and Suzuki’s are good reliable mini trucks.
Here’s a video on my brothers YT channel of going to buy his truck.
The importer is in Portland and I think they are called Motorcycle Warehouse, I suggest you call them and see what they have in stock, they don’t always keep there website current on new stock.
Here’s my brothers video 👍

In the late 80s I was slater and works for a roofing company with a fleet of these Suzuki carrys and we absolutely hammered them as hard as they would go on any terrain and in 4 years with that company I have no recollection of ever having any them breakdown. Fabulous vehicles if your happy going 45mph.
Love the video man
Your brother was KILLIN' it ... with STREET tires!
I you want one of these, get it. You won't be disappointed. Especially if you're thinking about getting a side by side. Don't waste your money. I bought a Honda Acty van and it's my daily driver. I don't think I can go back to a normal sized vehicle now.
They are a capable 4x4 and with some weight on the back even better traction love it 😀
Love the Kei truck content! Thank you for the video!!
You could literally document anything using those trucks- Work on your property, parts runs into town, dump runs, grocery getting or just a trip to get a bite to eat with the family. Love seeing them in action.
Thank you 👍
Fun video! I just bought a '95 Suzuki Carry 5spd, 4wd, at auction in Japan. It's on the boat now heading over. Can't wait to see what it can do.
日本の軽トラを愛してくれて、嬉しいです
I love that added Tachometer! that and the red interior paneling just makes this vehicle kinda pop out. The forest where you live is absolutely incredible!!!
Thank you Jon
cool idea with a frame in the back and an extra roof rack. I am implementing this in my project.
軽自動車は日本の最先端技術が詰め込まれています。
日本の国土に合わせたサイズで、日本の登録車の60%は軽自動車だそうです。
そんな日本のトラックを海外で愛されていると思うと誇らしい気持ちになります。
Thanks for checking out my channel! Yes these little trucks are really great 👍 I have many videos on my channel using my truck on my land and off-roading 🙂
Nothing like exploring mountain roads in the Pacific Northwest!
Those things are made for South East Asia they can handle almost anything you throw at it. Looked like a lot of fun
Magical carpet of leaves. Amazing colours
I still love that candy red Alligator on the door cards....
Haha I was ready to change that out when I first bought it, but haven’t gotten around to it yet, maybe it will stay 😂
Thanks for checking out my new video!
Happy holidays!
@@Mikefestiva Back at you and yours
These things look super useful and price wise, they're not too bad when compared to a 20k side by side
Looks fun ! I recognize some of the area your playing in. No day is done without some fun! Around bend Oregon out!
Cool little 4x4 trucks….
Thanks Tom 🙂👍 I really like my mini truck, I use it all the time!
That Honda might have made the steep hill with better tyres, both look great and will not easily tip over as their weight balance is 50/50 almost and low centre of gravity for heavy parts on the vehicles. Love them!
Best thing I did to mine was the ol Lincoln locker. Goes anywhere, and does donuts on dry pavement. Built an exoskeleton around the cab, more to protect the windshield. Winch mounts/ hitches front and rear. Very handy little truck, hasn’t had an easy life, but really no issues to speak of.
Also, spliced into the front axle solenoid with a switch for low range 2wd. And a skid plate up front, the radiator would pack full of weeds/debris and run hot, the skid plate keeps the stuff from getting in, and still runs cool
Looks like you got to go have fun
Badass! I love these Kei trucks!
Way better than the side by side and 1/4 the price. I want one! Rad to see you out playing.
Honda just needs some better wheels bit of profile hight and some mt tyres great stuff 👍
Neat Keitora action, they really are perfect for your neck of the woods.
These Video's really make me want either a Suzuki, Honda, or a Mazda KEI Yruck!
I used to have one for about 3 months, was amazing, fun and reliable as hell but never took it offroad at all, should have! im sure I'll get another one eventually to do this with! Looks like an absolute blast!
I have seen a few of these trucks on I-5 and was so curious about them! Love your videos!
Great video! If you want to stop most of the mud on your mirrors and doors, my Hijet benefited with some wide mudflaps behind the FRONT tires. There's SO many people that would love these little trucks if they tried one!
Love the little truck you should definitely fix the rear locker
There’s nothing broken on the rear Diff, it’s just an open Diff.
Thanks for sharing your adventures! Hope to get one of these one day! Beautiful trails too
Thank you! 😊👍
Thank you for another great year of videos,and the fun ride.Merry Christmas to All !
Happy Holidays
I 💕 my KEI truck. And toasty can be an understatement. Oven on wheels if you so desire.
Hi Mike thanks to you for your weld videos I now have my Titanium 200 an Vulcan 205 they are working great that funny I was looking at the Mini Truck videos an there you are agen Thanks
Thanks for checking out my videos!
You got a good lineup of welders there 👍 my Titanium 200 is still working great! It’s a champ of a welder, I ended up giving it to my friend so he could have a welder at his home shop. He owns a Miller but it’s at his work, he says the Titanium welds just as good as his Miller.
Take care 😊
Those trucks are super cool and probably very useful! Checked availability here in Sweden and there is 0 for sale….I bet they didn’t sell them here, too bad. Have a merry Christmas!
Super cool little trucks. It looks like you're on the rainy side of the cascades. It's such a beautiful part of the country. I want to make it out there some day.
Thanks James and Seasons greetings
Hello Mike . I have the Honda acty attack lifted big tires the little truck double purpose in the farm and the city here is street legal !!!
Love my Suzuki Carry, it's a '94 with a heavy dump body and takes me places I really don't need to be. LOL
Merry Christmas.
Happy Christmas Mario 🙂👍
The grounds crew at my old university had a few of these, very practical little things. It was an urban campus and I don't think they were street legal in our state, but they kept them on campus and treated them like John Deere Gators.
Hey Mike, Fun ride along Dude, thanks for taking along the gear and sharing your exploring adventure with us! Excellent video again as always.
Cool seeing those in action!!
Pop up tent or a large tarp, some camping gear and you could go anywhere in these little things
need more ride like this
Like suzuki..looks like u added a tach,,an covered it with undercoating...looks good..like the color
I like WA, I wanna go there some time
Love the Suzukis my first van was a Suzuki carry. Loved it!
Thanks for checking out my new video Seb! Happy holidays 🙂👍
@@Mikefestiva same to you mate. Hope you and family have good one. Take care.
These lil trucks are sweet! Merry Christmas 🎄
Looks like so much fun
Thank you Mike,
Thanks for the video! Happy holidays to you and your family.
-Justus
nice little truck..beatiful scene thank you for share.
I’ve only just noticed that it’s right hand drive. Or as we in Australia call it. Normal. 😎
Happy holidays to you and your family
Another thing real quick I was wondering if you'll be doing a review on the. OUTLAW™ 195 Engine Driven Stick Welder / AC Generator
Great video, as always. I've envied having one of these for years, maybe this will be the year. Merry Christmas, Mike!
Nice Mike, consider me jealous. I need to just pull the trigger on one.
I wish someone would bring them back.
Awesome vid… thanks!
Looks like a great time Mike, Merry Christmas.
Thanks for checking out my new truck video buddy 🙂👍
Happy holidays my friend!
@@Mikefestiva Always!
Merry Christmas, Mike.
Thanks for checking out my new video! Happy holidays buddy 🙂👍
Merry Christmas and really enjoy the videos. Beautiful country up there also!
Just stumbled upon your channel as I saw you in a comment in another, the universe works in mysterious ways but I've been really considering an Acty amongst many other options as a daily (of course I'd give her the works with proper thermal protection and every reliability upgrade possible as I'm in northern Alberta) but with this video I was reminded how much fun these little guys can be and I'm sold! Thank you, I'll be purchasing one this spring!
As I spend more time driving around in my brothers Honda Acty I realize I think the AWD is better then the 4wd that my Carry has, the Acty feels better in the snow then my Carry. I also find myself putting my Carry into 4WD a lot just to turn around on grass, mud and slippery conditions just because it’s so light in the rear, the Acty is always hooking up and works really well 🙂👍
Take care
Thanks for sharing Mike! Love my mini truck! I use it a LOT around my farm. And now with the winter getting here, I'll be tossing on my knock off Big Horn tires, lol! I think anyone on the fence about getting these should just get them. They are going to get harder and harder to find and more expensive because of the importing process. While they aren't a SxS replacement, mostly because of how the suspension limits speed and How they don't make that kind of power, they are still awesome with the heated (and sometimes cooled) cab. I also love how quiet they are stock. You almost can't hear them running. If you can do both a SxS and a mini truck, that's the way to go for sure! Hope you had a nice holiday!
Yes the kei trucks are front heavy... but look at most pickup trucks (not suv/sut) they are all nose heavy with 2/3-3/4 of the vehicles weight being on the front axle with only 1/4-1/3 being on the rear axle with no cargo in the bed. As they are designed to nearly balance front to rear when loaded.
Great Video Mike and Thanks for posting. These mini-trucks are more capable then anybody would ever imagine. Merry xmas to you too and have a wonderful new year!
Thanks for checking out my new video Ants! They are quite useful little trucks 👍 Happy Holidays! 🙂
Love it , Make some More vids !
There is a pretty large movement over here on the east coast to ban these little trucks from being street legal. I haven't seen anything lately about it but it mostly was concerned with the vehicle safety standards. I hope the highway nazis don't ruin it for us who have a need or desire to have one.
Cheers
Terry
They did that here in Illinois already. To add insult to injury many towns have legalized side by sides, and golf carts that don't have near the safety features the little trucks have.
I’m sure here in Kentucky they are fine. None of those annoying safety laws here.
Mike, suggestion: Install 2 cameras on your truck. One in the roof rack's front grill, and one in the roof rack's back grill. You could film all your adventures in POV mode!
Great video, thanks for sharing. I love those little trucks! My neighbor just bought one......*drool* LOL Cheers
Oh, MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Thank you for sharing your amazing journey with your different project in 2021. Merry Christmas and happy new year. God bless you and your family.
Merry Christmas to you and your family Mike!
Thanks Buddy! Happy holidays to you and your family 😊👍
I enjoyed the video very entertaining ! These little trucks go everywhere and on 38 hp unlike their American jeep cousins with V-8
Engines!
Nice little truck, I would love that. But in my country there is no such thing, only passenger versions.
Many moons ago, old mechanic I knew had a bedford rascal (similar thing), the rear has a big ass plate to work as a counter weight.
He took it out so he could lift the back of the car into parking spots.
Dear Mike festiva and brother.
👍👌👏 Great video, great environment. Congrats. The micro pickup trucks did exceptionally well. I'm impressed. You are absolutely right, they are not build for being toys. I would be jealous but unfortunately I don't fit in those cars (although my income would fit way better to a micro car than my big car does, sigh).
2) I guess that the white one would do even better with a moderat lift kit. And yours would still do good enough with not so tall rims and tires on it. It would definitely be quieter too. Your brother's winter tires seem to do just fine and the size suits better for driving on normal roads/freeways than your rough threaded ones.
Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing.
Best regards luck and health to all of you.
I think you're my spirit animal bro. Just found your channel while looking at reviews for a plasma torch. I've had a Mazda Scrum dump (Suzuki Carry Variant) for a couple years, awesome little trucks ain't they? Love the channel man, take care.
Haha Right on 🙂👍 Thanks for checking out my channel man I really appreciate it!
Great video Mike, those little trucks are Beasts. Yours climbed that slope like a goat. I really need to find one of those for my farm.
Thanks Tom for checking out my new video 👍🙂 They are really useful little trucks and I bet you would use one a lot! Take care and have a great New Year!
Looks like a fun bit of exploring Mike. Happy Holidays.
Love those micro's. Your lift definitely helps. But you need a locker. Merry Christmas Mike.
Nice toy
From my heart I wish you a Merry Christmas and a fantastic new year. Thank you very much for all your hard work , it's much appreciated. Class act Mike. I wish you great success. Regards Gareth Wiltshire UK. Gratitude. Quality. Respect.
Merry Christmas Gary to you too!
Cool little truck :)
Thanks 😊
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year
Happy Holidays Sean!
Merry Christmas Mike. Great little video and like you I have wanted one of these very capable little trucks for many years, I may start looking for one again.
Nice relaxing video. Very enjoyable!
Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Thank you Michael same to you
i reckon the film is great the liddle nip vehicles among all that WA beauty!
thanks for sharing looks like a handy little truck Ive seen a few of these around my area not not many.. I was in Birmingham Al a few months ago at a swap meet and saw 2 or three of these I think thay were the honda version, but they all said not street legal, not sure what that was about around here you can get a tag for a golf cart
thanks Dean
Those little trucks just keep amazing me..just awesome..:) thanks for the upload dude
these style videos are so cool!
Great video mike. Looking forward to taking my new Kei truck on some adventures!
Merry Christmas Mike, kei trucks are just amazing, I've had the van version of the Honda since 1990 then sold it and I've now got an electric Mitsubishi kei van. In between we had a Daihatsu move hatch back.
Merry Christmas, still waiting for that miniarticdump vs quad dump challenge. 😉
Great video, Mike! Thanks for sharing! Merry Christmas!
Happy Holidays
Love it merry Christmas mike
Merry Christmas and happy New Year! 🙂👍
And where I watch these videos the more I want one of those trucks. A few people around here have them and there's a couple of them that haven't moved in a few years. Maybe I can talk one of them and to sell me one.
These look so fun, I fear I would break it too easy haha
Awesome videos bruh 🔥🔥🔥
Great video Mike, my first ever work van was a suzuki carry. Everyone used to make fun of me until I told them how much it cost to run it and how organised it was inside. £25 petrol filled the tank! It was a great wee van, only reason I got rid of it was cos I needed to be able to tow heavier stuff. Merry Christmas and a happy new year 👍
Thanks for checking out my new video and commenting Sean 🙂👍 cool little machines!
