4-Door Mini Pickup Meets New Import Standards
We spotted this new 4-WD, 4-door mini pickup at the recent Farmfest Show near Redwood Falls, Minn.
  Made in China, the LZ970-3 is powered by a 4-cyl., water-cooled gas engine that gets 35 to 40 mpg.
  “It’s competitively priced with ATV’s and utility vehicles, but you also get a secure cab, air conditioning, 4-WD, and a quiet ride,” says dealer Randy Nilson. These trucks have thousands of different uses from farm utility vehicles to off-road hunting. They are extremely reliable and fuel efficient, combined with comfort and protection from the elements makes these vehicles an inexpensive alternative to pickup trucks and utility vehicles.
  Top speed is 62 mph. It has a 55-in. sq. bed with 13 1/2 in. high sides. The base model comes with air conditioning, steering on the left, a roomy cab with bench seats in back and bucket seats in front, off-road wheels and tires, and a rear winch receiver. A deluxe model is available and includes leather seats, front and rear winch receiver, front and rear tube bumper, rollbar, Baja lights, and a CD player. Both models are available with either a short or long bed.
  The base model sells for about $12,000.
