Frequently Asked Questions

Find the truck you want, press “Check Availability” or call us, and we confirm it is still in stock. A deposit reserves it; the balance is due before dispatch by wire, card, cashier’s check or financing. We then prepare the paperwork and ship it to your door.

Yes. A refundable deposit takes the truck off the market for 7 days while you arrange payment or financing. If you change your mind within that window, the deposit is returned.

You are welcome to visit our Texas Hill Country lot by appointment. If you can’t travel, we send a live video walk-around, cold-start video and any extra photos you ask for — underside, bed, cab, engine bay.

Our prices are set close to market, so there is little room to haggle — but we do offer package pricing on multiple trucks, fleet discounts, and periodic price drops on the Deals page.

These are 25+ year-old vehicles sold as-is, but every truck passes our pre-shipment inspection and we describe faults honestly. Optional third-party service contracts are available on request.

Kei trucks 25 years or older are exempt from federal EPA and DOT standards and can be imported legally. Most states issue regular titles and plates; a few (for example Rhode Island, Pennsylvania and parts of the Northeast) restrict kei trucks to off-road or limited use. We confirm your state’s rules before you buy.

US law allows any vehicle 25 years or older to be imported without meeting current EPA emissions or DOT safety standards. Because our inventory is 1990s-era, every truck qualifies — no conversion, no modification, no grey-market risk.

Yes. We clear each truck through US Customs, file EPA Form 3520-1 and DOT Form HS-7, and ship you the export certificate with translation, customs entry, bill of sale and a title-support letter for your DMV.

You receive everything needed for your state to issue a title in your name. Some states issue a title immediately from the import documents; others inspect the VIN first. We have walked hundreds of buyers through both.

Yes. Most major insurers write policies for titled kei trucks; classic-car and agricultural policies are often the cheapest. We can point you to carriers our customers use.

Yes — all Japanese-market vehicles are right-hand drive. Most owners adjust within a day; it is actually handy for rural mailboxes, gates and roadside work.

A flat $350 per vehicle anywhere in the continental USA, fully insured, door-to-door. Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico are quoted individually. Local pickup from our lot is free.

Dispatch is usually 2–5 business days after payment; transit is 1–3 days for Texas and neighbouring states, up to 5 days for the West Coast and Northeast.

Yes. Your carrier’s details and ETA are sent by text and email, and you can follow the status of your inquiry and order in the customer portal.

Yes. We partner with Republic Finance to offer approvals in under 24 hours, some of the longest terms in the industry, and options for good, bad or building credit. Applying has no impact on your credit score.

Every listing shows an estimated monthly payment. As a guide, a $6,000 truck runs roughly $125–$160 per month depending on term and down payment. Vehicles under $10,000 use installment plans instead of the 20 % down structure.

We do. Send details of your current kei truck, van or JDM vehicle through the Sell Your Truck page and we will make an offer you can apply toward your purchase.

Every vehicle is mechanically inspected and photographed before it ships. Listings show real mileage, drivetrain, transmission and any known faults; “Delivery mileage only” trucks are brand-new imports.

Honda Acty, Suzuki Carry & Every, Daihatsu Hijet & Atrai, Subaru Sambar & Domingo, Mitsubishi Minicab, Mazda Scrum, plus kei vans, dump trucks, JDM sedans and sports cars — around 900 vehicles in stock at any time.

Most are comfortable at 55–65 mph with 4-speed or 5-speed manuals; supercharged Subaru Sambars and automatic Suzukis cruise a little easier. They are built for work, not the interstate, but they keep up with rural traffic fine.

Typically 35–45 mpg from the 660cc three-cylinder engines — a fraction of a full-size pickup.

Yes. Filters, belts, brakes, clutches and body parts are widely available from US kei-parts specialists and directly from Japan; most ship in a few days. Many wear items cross-reference to common US parts.

Kei trucks carry roughly 770 lb (350 kg) in the bed by Japanese rating — owners routinely haul more on private land — and tow small trailers. Dump-bed versions tip hydraulically for gravel, mulch and firewood.

Yes. We buy and trade Japanese mini trucks, vans and JDM cars in any condition. Send photos and details on the Sell Your Truck page for a no-obligation offer, usually within one business day.
