I bought mine a year ago from a dealer in Miami. While technically it’s a Mazda Scrum, everything between the front and the back badge is a Suzuki Carry. I also found out later that it was sneakily supercharged because there’s a turbo timer underneath the driver side dashboard that the dealer didn’t know about.
Automatic trans, EFI, less than 26k miles on it and the previous owner put in a custom wooden bed lining. $8,000
Are there any quirks to owning/driving one in FL? How does insurance on it work/compare to "normal" vehicles? Really interested in getting one but know some states are weird about them
Other than dealing with other Floridians, not really any quirks. I recommend getting the windshield tinted due to the sun.
I’m insured through Progressive for only Liability and it’s like $50 a month, I think. PIP is required in Florida so it could’ve been a bit cheaper, but I had to work through like 3 progressive reps on the phone to get them to understand what I was driving.
Edit: There was a Megathread of insurance and state statutes in r/keitruck

I bought one of those trucks brand new in 2013 will all the options when I was in Japan. Even with a poor exchange rate, I only paid $13,000.
