They are completely "street legal", They just do not have titles for them. If you can get a title through the DMV of the state you live in and have it licensed, you can drive it anywhere. My friend has one with a homemade 8" lift and aluminum rims, 14" swampers and drives it 100+ miles a week. He had a hard time getting it titled but onced he did it was easy from there. His will keep up with traffic on the interstate, 60+mph. His is a Diahatsu Hijet but they are all the exact same. It will go anywhere!! Push button 4wd and about 12" of ground clearance add up to one cool deer hunting machine!! I'll try to get some pics of it on here.
