Pick-up trucks for anyone that’s not a farmer, construction worker or dirtbike rider.

They are so dumb and impractical for normal driving. I don’t get it.

I believe there was some tax-benefit for them in the US at some point…? Then it makes a tiny bit if sense i guess.

But what’s even dumber: cross-overs. Worst of both worlds.

Part of it was EPA regulations fucking up small trucks. Another part is that they’re safer for the occupants, deadlier for everyone else. And then there’s general machismo.
