The ‘kei’ cars and trucks are growing in popularity in the U.S. But many states have explicitly banned them in recent years. A bill at the statehouse would allow them on Colorado roads.
These trucks work pretty great up here in Seattle and the surrounding areas. They hold very close to as much as a full size American 8ft truck, plus a lot of em have sides which fully fold down.
Is this common the the Seattle area? I see one dude driving one all the time near me. Always give him a wave and he waves back. Are they legal in King county only? Or whole state?
Additionally, I’ve seen them upstate. In fact, it looks like if your Kei is registered in WA, you can drive down the interstate anywhere else in the US and they have to be ok with it due to interstate commerce laws. I’m not a lawyer.
This dude seems to corroborate that at the 6min mark, besides being east WA, and having generally good overview of what a good Kei choice from several options might be: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KqrfYTIxiWI
E: it’s nuts that my motorcycle has more displacement hahahaha

Semi-common, it seems.
