Micro-Truck ~ Buying a Honda Acty

- Micro-Truck ~ Buying a Tiny Truck, Honda Acty ACTY micro-truck. Farm Girl and Exoman purchased a Honda ACTY HA3. It's a 1995 micro-truck. This 5-speed manual, right-side driver has only 50K miles and is great for trips to the beach, store, and local errands. It would also be a great work vehicle for a farm or local delivery business.
This is considered a kei car which is the Japanese classification for small, four-wheeled automobiles.
Kei car is the smallest category of Japanese, expressway-legal motor vehicles. 'Kei' is diminutive for kei-jidōsha, (kanji: 軽自動車), or "light automobile" (pronounced [keːdʑidoːɕa]). With restricted dimensions and engine specifications, owners benefit firstly from lower taxes and insurance rates. In most rural areas, importantly, they were also exempted from the general Japanese shako shōmeisho (車庫証明書) parking-space ownership requirement to legally buy a motor vehicle at all, as street parking is generally restricted in Japan. Japan's carmakers also make microvans and kei trucks within this legal category.

日本の自動車整備士です
かつては毎日のようにこのモデルのアクティを整備しましたが、最近は見かけなくなりました
遠い異国で元気に走ってる姿を見ると嬉しくて懐かしくて、涙が出ます😂
I drove the same truck until two years ago.
I loved that car, very attached to it.
Have a great time.
The Kei Truck is very popular in the US, but it doesn't have a crush zone, so be careful not to get into an accident.🥰
cheers.
That is so exciting, congratulation. I just got my Honda Acty 1997 February 14, 2024. and my wife thinks I am crazy...Ha! Ha! I maybe.
Thanks for all the videos and your travels.
I used to own a 550ccACTYTRUCK.The car had a smooth acceleration response and I was impressed with the stability of tha De Dion axle.
Japanese minicars are amazing. They are fuel-efficient and can run on rough roads because they are 4WD. And even if you get stuck, you can get out with three adults. LoL
It's small, but it can carry a lot more than you'd think.
Your husband is incredible. He can fix anything. I wish I had his skills. Love your videos😊
I'm from Canada. They have been shipping those over here but only in 4x4. I'd love one just for messing around . Have fun with it
It's amazing that this car is over 25 years old.
Hello 🇯🇵 I'm Japanese. How about Japanese trucks? In Japan, everyone calls the light truck 🟰KEI-TORA. Thank you for continuing to love KEI-TORA! kawaii ❤️ KEI-TORA
ALPINA and HONDA, wonderful collaboration.
ですね！^_^b
ALPINAのデコライン似合ってますね！
The Marine Corps provided one of those for me when I was Security Chief for a base on Okinawa. Handy little trucks....
Lots of USN enlistees when homeport at Yokosuka buy JDM Kei Trucks from Yokohama. Most expensive thing is shipping. Used 90s Japanese truck will always be better than new Domestic
Finally, something affordable, simple, and durable !
Jen's smile is one of the greatest things on the internet such a beautiful lady. You guys are a great couple I really enjoy your adventures.
Very cool little truck!
very nice Choice❤❤❤
Honda's first commercially available car was a light truck with a 354cc inline 4-cylinder engine, but it was Japan's first mass-produced DOHC engine (2 valves per cylinder).
昔の軽トラはシンプルで良いですね。
Nice little truck!!
Well done nice truck, I'm thinking about getting one in the UK was looking at the Subarus for the 5th gear but the Hondas are nice too.
Lidls are very popular here great food at good prices.
Cool truck!!! I just can't believe it HAS a 5th gear! Hehehe. Super fun and practical. Thanks for sharing.
I am Japanese and have never had the chance to drive on farm roads, but when I borrowed my cousin's micro truck and drove it, it was an incredibly refreshing and fun experience. Everything is practical and you can understand the meaning of minimalist design.
That thing is perfectly fits places like mountainous area doing farm.
Usually mountain roads are very narrow and steep also muddy rough terrain.
Most o KEI trucks have lower gear biased setting to climb up and down hills, if you have 4WD truck that’s even better.
In Japan, farmers and all types of mechanics tend to use these, also a hunter. Coz they carry harvests same as farmers, i think that usage is more fitting to USA people.
現代の軽トラは排気ガス規制で電子燃料制御を使うので燃費が向上して、ガソリン1リットルで20キロメートル走るよ。
今はドライバー側だけエアバッグもつきます。
Hope you & Jen are well & staying safe. Recovered from a mild two week bout of Covid & feeling much better. Wish you all the best with your micro-truck. Seem to be pretty handy/useful vehicles as I've seen a few in my local area, also. You are like me, Exoman, as you take a thorough look/see before you purchase something. Take care.
Ｋトラの運転嬉しそう！！！ こんな綺麗な橋の上をドライブしたら笑顔になるね
Haha! young moma's bangin gears like she's in the challenger. Love it. Jen needs a hellcat
Those trucks are cool and handy. I used them in Japan and Korea when I was stationed there.
Thank you for ur service n yes they r cool
Yes! Thank you for your service Jim! 🙂
I had the opportunity to drive and work on a Mitsubishi mighty mite truck. It looked identical to the Honda's version. Mine was left hand drive 3 speed locked out at 20 mph not road worthy. It had seat belts and turn signals. The payload could handle 1700 lbs. 3 cylinder gas engine 8 gallon fuel tank. Bed folded down like yours. Have fun driving and using it.
KEI carscand trucks are very cool.
I've got a 1993 Daihatsu Mira Walk-Through and also a 1993 Daihatsu Mira TR-XX Avanzato which has turbo and efi.
Love em both. If you catch the bug, you get another one.
Good luck‼️
あくてぃはフェラーリです。前後重量配分が50：50です。アクティの４WＤならハンドリングが楽しくなるよ。
小さいけど、よく働きますよ〜😊
I'm so fascinated by how amazed you guys are of those little trucks there in the US! It's pretty common here in my country, the Philippines. And the best thing is, they're left-hand drive! Yeah, we drive on the right side of the road too. I wish Americans would get those tiny trucks here. We have a lot varieties of every brands here.
Sure is a pretty golf cart!❤️🙏☝️
軽トラ内での会話って近くて好き
私は、通称、逆Ｚと読んでいます。
彼女の方が運転がうまいです😘
故障はほぼありませんが安全性もありません、市街地・山間部・買い物に最適です。
英語、解りませんが軽四輪車運転のテクニックは素晴らしいですね初めてとは思えません、最高です。
画面右下の字幕と設定で日本語選べばわかりますよ
海外で軽トラが走っているのを見るのは不思議な気分です😊
軽トラはメンテナンス性も良く、自分で大抵のメンテナンスができますので、これからも大切に乗ってあげてください🎉
Current car models in Japan are now available specifically for women working in agriculture, and they look even cuter.
The legal speed limit on general roads in Japan is 40km/h or 50km/h. Light cars are designed to Japan's own standards without the intention of exporting them, so if you don't drive at a reasonable speed, the ride will be unstable. I recently switched to a light car.
Good show 👍
those seats are nice!!!
The Power of Dreams
Nice truck journey
Kei trucks are extremely dangerous in the event of a collision.
Please be careful.
looks like a good vehicle, most classic pickup trucks ride better with some load in the bed, just helps out/ and if it's snow and ice season sometimes a couple bags of sand is good to have around anyway.
THIS IS THE FUTURE!
How fun!
Tiny but very cool n very handy
Agreed! Thanks Michael!
Very cool 🎉
ピックアップトラックと違いアオリが３面倒れるので便利だし、ホンダアクティはエンジンが荷台中央で、腐ってもホンダ。どんだけ古くても価格がつくのがホンダだ。と言ってずっと代々ホンダを乗ってた大工さんを思い出す。
I stopped the video at 8:42 to go to the door for something. When I came back, I noticed you both had the stereotypical male female looks on your faces! It’s funny as heck! 😂
you're so funny, love watching you guy's
Just keep watering it. It'd grow.
good sound
Thoes springs are way underrated for the load. The struts are fine…there a nice trucks…most up here are 4x4 thoe two wheel Honda the motor in the back is way better…🎉🎉🎉..cheers
軽トラの運転は楽しいね
でも、ボディ柔らかいから事故には気を付けて
great!
nice truck.
軽トラは丸洗いできるのが嬉しいよね
If you think this is cute, then a Suzuki SuperCarry panel van will blow your mind.
Not cute. They are just following along with the fad of all the other youtubers. Yay, China 😂 gtfo
軽トラの良いところは、目茶苦茶頑丈で長持ち
軽トラのアフターパーツがアメリカでも出てくれるといいな
Hated to see her car go lol the doge very nice ride lol
Cool...
In Japan,it's called a Ferrari on the farm road.
まちがった情報です。
スバルが造った軽トラはリアエンジンだったので農道のポルシェとよばれましたが、ホンダは正確にはミッドシップエンジンでは無く、アンダーフロアエンジンでした。
Cool🎉
このアクティは幸せだね、こんなに喜ばれて！日本にいたら潰されていたかもしれない。
アメリカで現行の軽トラが走れないのは残念ですが、進化した軽トラいいですよ。
Jen: "Oh sh!t! Oh sh!t! Oh sh!t!...I mean, Oh shoot!" 🤣😂 That's a cool little truck/cart! 👍🏻
Do you guys ever get Snow there, maybe I should relocate because I really hate Winters here in New England
日本の軽自動車は64馬力までというメーカーが自主規制してる。 大きな車より車体の丈夫性がないからである。 自信があれば改造して100馬力位は直ぐに上がるよ。
但し、安全運転をする事だ。 😅
( Japanese kei cars are self-regulated by their manufacturers to a maximum of 64 hp. This is because they are not as robust as larger cars. If you are confident, you can easily increase the horsepower to around 100 hp by modifying the car.
But drive safely. 😅 )
This thing will make certain tasks some easier I think. But I don't think I could drive it far. I'm 5'10", not quite as tall as Exoman, but I have arthritis in moth knees so sitting behind the wheel for long would KILL ME!!! LOL!!
They’re selling for 6k/10k here in Tennessee.
On that Honda most of them have the 5th gear locked out because there not safe at fifth gear speed. But you can take trans apart and cut the lock stop out.
I watched this movie yesterday. It’s been bugging me since! TRY ALWAYS TAKE OFF IN 2ND GEAR. Only use 1st gear for hill start. It is still a little truck . You can try and whine the adjustable suspension back down! Go to motorcycle shop for the tool, much cheaper there.❤
In the Philippines this truck would be converted to left hand drive! Don't know HOW I'd do on a manual right hand drive. For sure it'd take a LOT of getting use to!

5 min. later 10:30 homeowner walks out "someone stole our free sign board"
It's just like a Cab over
ALPINAのロゴがオシャレ
軽トラ🚚😊
The wheels realy look like BMW Alpina. The previous owner was joking.
Applying a rust converter will make it last longer
Used Acty in Russia - is about $10...12k. (8 years | 80 000 miles)
アクティは、雪道は強かった～ リアルタイム４ＷＤなので、ステアリングは重かった エンジンがリアなので、高速ではお尻も熱くならないし五月蠅くなかった 日本では車検が有るため、古くなると部品の調達が難しくなり手放しました 今はハイゼットジャンボに乗って居ます
Get the 4x4 with low range and rear locker if you want a work truck.
"Don't accidentally put it into reverse"... LOL
😂 I'm 6ft4" there's no way I could get in 👌
That thing is Cool!!
The sign was not free it was just set out there too advertise the other free stuff. It was an antique and very expensive. I hope you got good use out of it.
Yeah, I thought that was obvious, too.
I tried to get in one of those mini trucks but couldn't. How tall are you guys?
To convert kph to mph, multiply kph by .6. So, 70kph equals about 42mph.
About 8 km to 5 miles on the speedo' in my Hijet. 42 kpm=25 mph and 72 KPM =45 mph.
Careful. They grow on you and infect your mind. Next thing you know you got spare engines and making room for a fleet of Kei trucks. 😂
The first time I drove a right hand drive vehicle I reached to shift and grabbed the window crank instead.
Jen have to give you credit for putting up with that old fart.thanks
今晩わ✋お疲れ様でした。 公開は有難う御座います。Good👍安全運転して下さい🛻 では良い日を。
ストラット、ショックアブソーバーも
交換すべきだけどタイヤも選び直さないと
145R12-6PRを装着してくださいね。
Careful. There's zero crush zone in front-end collisions. 😞
こんにちは、私は狩猟を趣味にしてます。4wd kei truckは特に日本の山には必需品なのです
現代の軽自動車に乗ったらもっと驚くだろうね
