About This Truck
## 2008 Daihatsu Hijet Truck – 4WD Flatbed A compact, capable flatbed that earns its keep on acreages, hobby farms, and job sites where a full-size truck is more machine than you need. The Hijet's tight turning radius and narrow profile let you work in places a half-ton can't go, while the flat deck gives you a practical hauling platform for feed, tools, fencing supplies, or whatever the day demands. Under the hood is Daihatsu's reliable 660cc three-cylinder engine paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. The real story is the drivetrain — full-time switchable 4WD with a low-range transfer case means this truck handles mud, snow, and rough terrain without complaint. Power steering and air conditioning round out the comfort features, and there's a driver airbag on board. This truck comes in with 55,834 km on the clock, which is modest for a vehicle this age. That said, we'll be straight with you: the auction grade is 3.5 out of 5, with exterior and interior both graded C. Condition notes flag multiple exterior scratches, paint wear, and repair history, plus interior wear including burns and scuff marks. Body damage markers are noted at both front and rear corners. This is a solid working truck priced accordingly — not a showpiece, but the kind of machine that's already been roughed up and won't stress you out when it gets dirtier. Road legal in Canada in all provinces except Quebec.
