Comment on Your Truck is Stupid Big

  Eh, unless you need to haul heavy equipment. Damn, Lemmy is worst than Reddit when it comes to these things.

  Not sure if it’s mostly kids or just naive adults.

    Yeah the real point is that the vehicle you haul your dirt bikes in and the vehicle you park at the airport are ideally different, but it’s very understandable that they aren’t. Also I’m certain that truck isn’t backed in all the way. It’s stupid big, but not 2x longer than the space big.

      Yeah. I think inconsiderate usage of them are the bigger problem…

      Also, people that have these trucks, never use them to haul shit, lift them up and put low profile large rims on…deserve every bit of hate.

      Driving them around unloaded is a terrible experience. The suspension is designed with a minimum load in mind. Without this preload the whole thing is significantly over-sprung and a terrible ride.

    Not just Americans haul large things, yet you don’t see these monstrosities in Asia, Africa, South America or Europe. Don’t know about Australia, never been there. Other countries just use lorries of any size. Americans use these micropenis compensators for shopping carts. Also, in the 80’s and 90’s pickup trucks were much smaller yet the bed size wasn’t much different. So why have it this enormous when there’s no benifit to it, other than an ego boost? It’s just so fucking dumb.

    Right back at ya mate.

    A bunch of people have these in my apartment building, I assure you they never haul anything except maybe 3 cases of eater bottles. People are morons buying these as daily drivers to the office.
