Kei cars are great, kei trucks are great. I wish it was easier to get them in the United States. Im living in Japan right now, and I love my little box car, the AC works great and its cheap on gas.

Yep, I have a long commute and get about 20 km/liter, which is 47 mpg. Gas is about 150 yen/liter right now (it was close to 180 until a few weeks ago), so if I had an inefficient car I'd be paying out the ass. It might be more expensive in cities but I live in the boonies.
