we use one of those for deliveries at Napa. I got T boned by a bronco driving it last winter on the right (drivers) side. I won't ever be riding in/driving one again.

I drove one around on a test drive, it was pretty cool but im doubting its durability on a farm..... two full sized guys like myself are shoulder to shoulder in the truck. and being 6'2" I was a bit cramped in the cab!

The US Government owns a ton of those things. There must have been a few hundred Daihatsus and Tiger Trucks at PSNS alone, a few dozen more at Bangor.

Well we own a couple here on the farm, we put lift kits and off road tires in them and had one painted up in camo, looks really good. we've had them since 2006 and we beat the hell out of them here on our farm, we hauled wood stacked 2 ft higher then the cab, we've ran out of wagons and stacked 30 bales of hay on one and never had a problem(we did get back gas one time, but it stil lran, had to flush the tank). Im 6 ft, my grandfather's 6 ft 2 so the space is kinda cramped at times, but managable, we bought ours for way less then what a single gator or rhino would cost. plus we can hit bout 55 mph and still get 45 mpg plus.
