Can they handle the highway?

What is the speed that most models can do without trashing themselves? Can they really handle the highways. I really think so but if someone has handled it, do share your experience.

Approximately 80kph would be fine I feel so. If you are a frequent highway user, then Subaru Domingo turbo vans will be more suited.

Minitrucks are off limits on highways and probably the speed factor is the reason.

It can very well handle the highway if you are moving at an average speed of 70 to 80 km/hr. That said, the minitrucks are bound by regulations which prohibits them on state highway. Exemption are made for vehicles with speed regulations. So it's better to keep that in mind before taking an adventurous ride on highways.

It's only safe to ride it at 60 - 80 Km/hr. One more thing is the weight distribution. When placing a load on the backside of the mini truck. Place it as close to the driver's seat or towards the front end of the van. The load would have a good center balance and can enhance vehicles control. If the load is kept at the tail end. The mini van might skid or topple when making a turn. Not advisable to ride it on the highway.

True that speed factor would be the main reason for making it to the off roads.
