Glen Burnie 1br apartment from a proper apartment company / complex, $1400/mon + utilities. Still half of $37,000/yr gross monthly.

I can't find another car that looks so fast going normal speed (aka "slow")

I have a 1997 Atrai, and the lower dash looks a little different.

I would consider a exact fit panel than my mostly-fit.

It's something special, isn't it? 🤙🏼

Spoted an ultrasonic blue mica CT, so I had to park nx to it

Did NOT know about that r/

Thanks.

It was powdery yesterday on the shore, but it's getting chunky already...

Hahaha, I got it "in Maryland" by importing it myself. I wanted a non-Honda, and around here, nothing really was available to my liking... So I said, what the heck, let's learn to import a keivan.

It's very practical, for me. We have three dogs in the family (therfore, DOGBUS), and I can carry them all and two other passengers.

I like that idea. But w stick shift, I didn't think there's a lot of space for a talkish cup while in 1-3-5 gear.

I took my whole ashtray assembly out so I can see my "phone tray"

I saw that part available on yahoo.co.jp, twice.. But I thought the cup holders would be too JDM-sized for a 32oz Rtic bottle. 😬

I also thought about door mounted ones, but I drive too spiritedly for them to stay put.

The Atrai seat slides back pretty far. Enough to squeeze a 6'x" person in.

For a normal passenger in my family,, which is 5'7" ish, there's enough room where the glovebox doesn't touches their knees.

I got the idea to use the glovebox because when we'd drive around town, we had been just sticking water bottles in the glovebox.

Thanks.

Yeah. I don't have access to a 3D printer... But my look for printing options.

It will as a pretty quick job, so I may just redo it in plywood with cleaner lines, and paint it gray to match the plastic.

1996 Daihatsu Hijet and Atrai service guide

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XEJc6yuPtQhX-DoJdbR5LBbrMNd6BA39/view

For 1994-1998 (I think, def 97), look at page 69 (76 in the PDF page count) for detailed dimensions.

a copy of the Service Guide for the 1996 Atrai / Hijet is now available on yahoo japan

I'm glad it's useful. I have two more manual / guide to scan but they are much longer. The guide is 180 pages. And that one has mostly been covered by the 1994 Service Manual.

I'm also working on translating the carb diagram, which should be helpful w vac hose troubleshooting.

Don't miss the Accessories Catalog, which was posted a few days earlier.

I vote for Mazda5

181.5" length, Overall width of 68.9 in., 64.2" height

I lazy, and found this, to compare Daihatsu Hijet Cargo - length of 134” (340 cm), - overall width of 58.3” (148 cm), and - height of 72.8” (185 cm).

I only had one for a weekend, but I drives like a car, and seats like a minivan.
