Probably same engine capacity too.
- Not even close.
  I'm 99% certain that's a 2nd Gen Honda Acty. Which means it has at best a .7 liter engine making 45hp.
  The wannabe monster truck at minimum would have a 4.3 V6 making almost 300hp. But the particular spec in the picture typically has the 5.3 V8 at around 355 HP.
  Kei trucks are cool. But they're like a big golf cart with a flatbed.
  
  I have a Daihatsu Hijet on my property. Pretty much use it like a quad. Spray paint camo job, 4x4, dump bed, w/ rear locker. Pretty awesome at pulling shit, getting thru muddy spots, etc.
  I’ll say this - that little Hijet is a much, much more capable little rig than my 2014 Taco, let alone the stupid bro-dozer in the picture. I’ll probably bring it with me elk hunting next year so I can load up the bed with elk quarters and crawl out of the bush
  
  I can see how it would be good in mud. I'd wager it weighs close to a ton less than your Taco.
  
  You nailed it. The light weight allows it to float a bit more in the rough stuff.
  Don’t get me wrong, love the Taco but the Hijet is a rockstar all its own.
  
  Fair!
  Still, I'm under the impression that some of this "trucks" can have surprisingly small engines given their size.
- I own one of these small trucks, a Mitsubishi Minicab. It has a 660cc engine. Nowhere close to the same engine capacity.
  
  I had a Yamaha fjr1300 motorcycle. The engine in it was almost twice that truck engine
- Is that a joke?
  
  No this is the social media website called lemmy. If it’s not about games, Linux, or coding you’re gonna get lots of disinformation.
