l You get taken serious by your fellow carbrained americans because ““trucks”” are normalized and small handy cars are ridiculed.
So unless you are a fragile piece of human, choose the right one.
As an American, I’ve written to multiple manufacturers, foreign and domestic, to bring/build the smaller Kei trucks but I have never heard any response except for Ford that basically sent a brochure for their F150 that has ‘more space’ for ‘getting work done’. I would love these for practicality but the cost of importing a used one was MUCH higher than buying a normal truck/suv here. :(
