I remember that there used to be Japanese mini-trucks with 2 or 3
cylinders and one used to sit over the engine up front. They were so
small they were one of the few vehicles that still took an A class
Illinois truck plate. (3000 lbs GVW)
Whatever happened to them?

Visit a college campus or a golf course if you want to find those little
trucks. The guys who take care of the grounds will be driving them.
They were using them on the campus of then-Quincy College in 1977 when I
went there. They were also using them at Abbott when I worked there in
1999. But they're not, as Crocodile Dundee put it: Roadwise. They can't
apparently be licensed for the road in the US anymore. If they were, at
least one or two of them would have turned up on Ebaymotors by now.
