First time driving a Kei truck today. Free loaner from the hardware store.

Long time since I've seen manual-crank windows. The AM/FM radio didn't work, but it actually had the speaker IN the single-DIN unit, not wired into the dash or doors, it must have sounded horrible.

Sharing the load with our daily driver Kei minivan, hauled a total of 1,400 kg of sand and gravel for our walkway in 2 trips. It did the trick!

A hand holding car keys in front of a white Kei truck that has a “HANDSMAN” logo on it. It is clearly in a parking lot for a hardware store Kei truck interior. It is tight, the drivers knees are up against the dash. Manually winded windows. Some goober flashing his mug for the camera from inside the truck while white sacks are visible in the bed A Kei truck with the bed full of white bags. You can see it says “お客様　無料貸出 トラック” on the rear of the bed. Next to it is a black Kei box minivan with more white bags in the back.
