Photo of a blue 1962 Mazda T1500 pickup. This pickup has a single wheel in front, and two wheels in the rear, with a bed that is as wide as, and nearly as long as, the largest modern American full-size pickup beds, with the added functionality of the sides dropping down. Additionally, the bed is much lower than modern American pickups.

@ATLeagle @mekkaokereke there is a lot of me that wants to build modern versions of this and sell them
“oh, kei trucks are unsafe because they don’t meet FMVSS? well, how about this? this does meet FMVSS, yet is significantly less safe.”
(actually, technically, it fails to meet FMVSS in one way: the headlights are too far apart to be legal as a motorcycle, I believe. but, a modern version could trivially fix that.)
