    Unrealistic as it could not be sold. A 1990 Honda Civic lacks crumple zones and other safety features that are now required on vehicles in the United States.

    So, you’re saying it’s a regulatory preference for larger vehicles, not a consumer preference, right?

    Then I reject your consideration of a Kei Truck as cargo space obviously isn’t a concern for you.

    The maximum length of a Kei truck is 30" shorter than the 1990’s Civic. The maximum width of a Kei truck is 6" narrower than the Civic. Your criticism of the Kei truck is nonsensical.

      No, I’m saying that there’s vehicles made and sold in the United States today that fit your “business need”. The rest of this is you making some bizarre argument about a fictional vehicle that could hypothetically be better.

      I can’t buy a new subcompact vehicle: there is nothing currently on the market that ideally meets my business needs.

      Yeah there is, go buy it and quit your whining.
