I'm definitely not a fan of modern SUVs which are basically tanks (like seriously you should def check this tool out to compare car sizes)

I was also looking at smaller pickups (like 1980s to 1999) but they're so bloody expensive right now locally.

I even looked at kei trucks (and almost bought one (they're street legal in my state) but changed my mind when I double checked how it would affect my insurance cost and they told me they wouldn't insure it, so I'd have to get a second insurance plan from another company and I didn't want to go through that headache.

Bruh that insurance makes no sense. Hopefully it will die soon and finally allow people to buy cars they want

Honestly yeah

Basically they told me that because it was never originally sold (or an equivalent model) in the states they wouldn't insure it

It was pretty frustrating
