1998 Subaru Sambar

priced at $4,000. Subaru did something different with the Sambar that Honda, Suzuki, and Daihatsu didn't bother with: they kept the engine mounted low in the rear, over the rear axle, with four-wheel independent suspension all the way around instead of a live axle in back. The payoff is a ride quality that's noticeably smoother over ruts and washboard gravel than most of its competitors, plus better rear-wheel traction since the engine weight sits right over the drive wheels. It's not a fast truck and was never meant to be it's meant to be predictable, easy to fix, and hard to get stuck. This one is a straightforward, no-drama example. The 4WD system engages when you need it for a muddy field or a snowy driveway and stays out of the way the rest of the time, and the 5-speed gives you a real low gear for creeping through soft ground or backing a trailer up an incline. We go through every import before it's listed brakes, fluids, tires, and the drivetrain get checked, and anything that needs attention gets handled before the truck ships, not after. 4WD drivetrain 5-speed manual transmission 24,936 miles Rear-engine, independent 4-wheel suspension Flatbed cargo layout Buyers put trucks like this to work hauling mulch and firewood around a property, running feed and fence posts on a ranch, moving gear between greenhouses, or just parking one at a hunting camp or campground where a full-size pickup is overkill and hard to squeeze down a two-track trail. The narrow width and tight turning radius matter more than people expect once they're actually using one daily. We handle the import paperwork and titling, and delivery is door-to-door anywhere in the lower 48 no dealer trip required on your end. Payment goes through by secure bank transfer, and we'll walk you through the steps before you send a dollar.
