Anyone have experience with the Japanese Mini Trucks? Pros/cons, availability of parts etc?

Thanks

Chuckle12 used to have one. Loved that thing.

I had one, loved it. i only changed because I have 3 boys and riding them & a wife in the 2 seater minitruck sucked. i had a lift, 26" tires, snorkel, etc. It would go.

Is there a brand better than the other? Difficult to work on?

Loved mine, but they just aren't built for deep water, but other than that loved mine. That heater sure made it nice riding to and from the blind.

"I didn't buy these big ol tires to have to park it at the gate"!

The older ones are more difficult to find parts for. We had a few suspension issues and our mechanic had to fab some parts to make repairs a couple of times. I think the one we used to have was a '93 or so. Get a newer model if possible.

That being said, I wish we still had ours.
