Why kei trucks

Small truck. Serious work.

Kei trucks are Japan's compact work trucks. Most models from the 1990s on use a 660cc engine, are rated to carry 350 kg (about 770 lb) in Japan, and fit through gates, barn doors and orchard rows that full-size pickups can't. Many 4x4 versions add a low-range gear or locking differential for mud and hills.

Farmers and ranchers use them as do-it-all utility vehicles. Collectors love them for their classic JDM style.

Kei truck FAQ

In Houston: on our lot and ready to buy today. In Transit: on its way from Japan; reserve it now with a deposit. Reserved: a deposit has been placed. Sold: no longer available.

A $1,000 deposit takes an In Transit vehicle off the market and is credited in full toward the price. The balance is due before pickup or shipping. The deposit is non-refundable if you cancel, and fully refunded if we can't deliver the vehicle.

No. Every vehicle is sold AS IS, with no warranty, express or implied. That's why we encourage you to inspect and test drive in Houston, or have an independent mechanic inspect the vehicle, before you buy. Odometer readings are shown in kilometers as displayed on the vehicle and are not guaranteed. See our Terms of Sale.

Yes. Under U.S. rules, vehicles that are at least 25 years old are exempt from federal safety-standard (FMVSS) import requirements, and vehicles at least 21 years old in original configuration are exempt from EPA emissions import requirements. That's why the kei trucks and JDM vehicles we sell are 2001 and older.

Our vehicles are sold with their import paperwork. We don't provide a state title or registration, so titling and registering the vehicle is your responsibility. Laws vary by state, and some states limit kei trucks to off-road, farm or low-speed use. Please check with your state's motor vehicle agency before you buy.

Buying in Texas? Since September 1, 2025, Texas allows kei trucks to be titled and registered as "miniature vehicles." Our Texas title and registration guide walks you through the steps.
