Trucks should be used for working and not hauling groceries. Get a fucking car or a van. Roads are safer with more crash compatibe vehicles that also weigh less. Large trucks should need a special licence to drive/own Driving should also be taught in school
Large american pickup trucks shouldnt even need to exist. You could get almost the same bed space with a kei truck (which granted is not easy to import or get but still)

Isnt it a Chevy pulling a jet in the old ad making the rounds? I'm sure that Chevy would be fucked after doing THAT a few times but it would handle your stupid uhaul sized trailer just fine.
There are certain large vehicles that are still needed but the F150 (and similar) shouldn't be in every fucking driveway Trucks are purpose built vehicles.
I own a brewery and the number of people that drive 30-40 min in a truck to pick up a 50L keg is insane. I have a Veloster and can put 5 full kegs in it...
Well. Now you have to drop the name of the brewery. It's ok! I'm a homebrewer and genuinely curious!
Last time I shared that online publicly someone left a review stating they were raped in my bathroom on our site. Some proper shit heads out there unfortunately
They probably wouldn't exist if it weren't for the unintended consequences of regulation
Actually it's a lack of regulations that is the problem. Light trucks are less regulated so the big manufacturers leaned hard into it.
Regulations need to be updated
This is my exact point
Ok, just making sure ya weren't just some (insert political leaning here) idiot who thinks regulations should be done away with... Too many of those dumbasses
