Not just the vans, and also not only the 4WD ones, are widely used as jitney cabs in Southeast Asia and Africa. Anyway, I have already considered to get a Korean license-made version of the Daihatsu Hijet that had been available in my country in the '90s and try to make a modular camping conversion that could be easily removed when not in use.

The later models with a safer front engine have recently become available in Canada.
As long as it's 15-year or older, isn't that easier to register a Kei van there in Canada than in the U.S.? Are them granted access to the highways there?
