1983 Dodge Rampage

Some fathers go to great lengths to indulge their daughters.  My daughter liked barbies, so more than a few found their way into our house.  Other dads bought their daughters mini-car-trucks from the 80's and painted them pink.  Find this 1983 Dodge Rampage for sale in Tacoma, WA for $1,950 via craigslist.  This post is part of DT's 2016 Birthday Celebration of 100 cars; enjoy the ride!

Apocalypse Ready: 2008 Suzuki Carry Mini Truck

Suzuki introduced their Kei truck in 1961, but the appropriately named "Carry" got better through the years, and today's example comes from the tenth generation released in 1999.  The Carry still used a cabover style setup also known as FMR (front mid-engine rear-wheel drive) and conformed to the Japanese kei truck rules.  Find this 2008 Suzuki Carry Mini Truck offered for $22,500 in Palmer, AK via craigslist.  Tip from Zach.

Small Fry: 1963 Datsun NL320 Monster Truck

In the world of the 4X4 mini truck, the Suzuki Samurai reigns supreme -- but there are times when a classic competitor arrives and puts the Samurai on notice.  Notable custom examples include the '72 Honda N600 custom, the '65 Austin Mini Meep, the '68 Citroen 2CV LeSami and the '61 MG Midget thing, but today's oddball Datsun really gives the others a run for the money.  Find this 1963 Datsun NL320 Monster Truck here on eBay bidding for $1,655 reserve-not-met with 4 days to go, located in Oakland, CA.

Little Red: 2001 Honda Acty Mini Truck

Bigger isn't always better.  Take heart attacks, for instance.  A small heart attack might trigger a change in lifestyle, while a big heart attack causes a change in life.  A small scale invasion of France is known as tourist season in Britain, while a large scale invasion of France is a World War -- so, forget everything you've read about bigger, larger, morer, et cetera. Conveniently, it just so happens that we've got a small truck today, that I propose is better than a large one. Find this 2001 Honda Acty Minitruck here on eBay currently bidding for $6000 with a few hours to go, located in Brandon, MI.

5k: AWD, Mid-Engine, 5-spd: 1995 Honda Acty Mini Truck

 Another day, another mini-truck on these pages, with the same likelihood that you can register it for street use as that 2x4 go kart you built in your garage.  The second generation Honda Acty (short of activity) was released in 1988 and was sold as Honda's main Kei-truck offering through 1999.  With a mid-engine setup and all-wheel-drive it is basically the a Japanese version of a Lamborghini Gallardo.   Find this 1995 Honda Acty Mini Truck offered here on eBay for $6,850 buy-it-now, located in Daly City, CA.  Tip from Kaibeezy.
