1992 Daihatsu Hi-Jet Fire Fighter 4WD: the background

Trade-spec Hijets were overwhelmingly white; this one is recorded as Red. Four-wheel-drive Hijets were aimed at farm and forestry work, which is where the sub-transmission low range and the differential locks in this family come from. The Hijet was built to be maintained by its owner rather than by a dealer: the seats tip forward, the engine is right there, and the service points are deliberately obvious. A 1992 Hijet sits in the middle of a production run that has outlasted most of the companies that started building trucks alongside it.

Practicalities of this Hi-Jet Fire Fighter 4WD

Plenty of buyers keep a Hi-Jet Fire Fighter 4WD looking exactly as it arrived; this one is Red and presented as we received it. A 1992 build date puts this one well past the 25-year federal import threshold. Price on this one is $14,900. Japan raised the kei displacement ceiling to 660cc in January 1990, and the 660cc unit in this 1992 Hi-Jet Fire Fighter 4WD was engineered to sit just inside it.
