And more children die nowadays for the sake of... what? Small egos?

refusing to build small trucks

It's taxes, yes, if they build larger trucks then the metrics they use to calculate taxes drops.

Kinda like the Škoda Felicia pickup.

Weird. Because 95% of these I see have zero passengers, cargo, or things being hauled. They are taking up 4 parking spots, though!

Not likely to happen. Both by culture and directly street/parking/garage size.

Yeah, which is why I use my sports car. Different tools and such.

So you're just making shit up and projecting. Well, at least your honest about what your doing. Makes me feel quite a bit less gaslit even I hear all these screeches about not using a truck properly. Makes total sense how is so out of line with reality.

Does a trailer tow by itself? I'm hauling cars.

I completely agree. I'd love a shorter bed + more seat room and maybe small cap. I only really need the towing the bed only gets used 10 times a year.

So truthyness and your gut feeling.

It's insane, you've got people screeching nobody needs this because of biased perceptions.

I'm my observation most truck users use then quite a bit. I'm on the light side and two 2k a year and maybe 10 home depot trips , and all my peers are using them even more ‍️. Maybe not as scientific as a rough survey of a parking lot and making assumptions about clean vehicles not being used properly!

I think you might have a weeeee bit of a bias

Every single response has been one giant projection and nerds screeching about their observations in parking lots as if they man a damn thing.

In my observation most trucks get used pretty heavily. If not the first owner almost always the second

So you don't actually have anything that says otherwise. Im sorry; your entire argument is invalid and rules of the code d'ebatemebro say you get ten minutes in the shame corner or ritual suicide. The shame corner is live streamed.

I think you know what I meant. Most people who need a truck need a truck like mine. Obviously most people don't need a truck. I only have one because the last few years have required a lot of work on my house and yard. Whenever all that wraps up I'll swap it back out for another car.

People toss out the "you just need a buddy with a truck" or "you just need to rent one" thing so much but those things require you to bend your life around, say, inconveniencing people to borrow / hoping their schedule accommodates, or, having to go collect, use, pay for, and return during a narrow window of time a rented truck, which, yes, is fine for one day, but if again, you've got years of unpredictable needs ahead of you, it's not a sin to buy a cheap, well-used truck as a second or third vehicle so you've always got it when you need it. And in that case, those "most people" need a truck like mine_.

Is it ok to wiggle your little finger at men with tiny beds

As someone who has an extended bed standard cab 2001 Tacoma I can assure you I do many things with my truck bed. Just as the 4 metal Jerry cans from the 1960s! They are doing something called looking cool, also the bed has gotten used for the most random crap because my life is just that way, I smuggled a couple trees from Idaho through Death Valley with it.

The dude that drives one of the oversized ones where I live looks exactly like all the people who do selfies in their truck. Balding, those glasses and weraing a cap. His truck has the fucking punisher logo too. And to round it off it also had a sticker of an AI character company on it.

I had an 06 Ford Ranger (actually a Mazda). RWD with a 4 cylinder and a 5 speed. No frills at all. That was a phenomenal truck. You could put snow tires on it, throw some sand bags in the bed, and go just about anywhere.

Truck and sports car? That's some advanced compensation.
