Why should I have to subsidize your oversized work vehicle and the extra wear and tear it causes our infrastructure?
Drive a van. Drive a truck that is reasonably sized and designed for human work (like are used in many countries around the world). Pickups don’t have to be built on frames sized for semis.
And you dont understand the needs of people that do work on housing, you can tow a significant trailer or haul heavy things with a van or small pickup. A half ton pickup is not useful for real work.
I do get it. You have no reasonable excuse to drive a multi-ton pickup that’s tall enough that you can’t see people standing in front of it. There are alternatives or it’s not needed as a daily driver. How is it that the rest of the world manages to accomplish the same things with smaller vehicles?
Keep trying to justify it to yourself or just own the fact that it’s ostentatious and ridiculous.
What kind of conceited child tells people to “do some real work” and talks like no one else could exist but by the grace of their work?
hyper individualism
blind support for oversized trucks
Gotta be from the US, huh?
Take a look outside your country and see how things are done elsewhere. I can’t fault you for the shitty US auto.industry continuing to needlessly bloat the size of vehicles past what is reasonable, but I can fault you for your blind support of it.
Go do some real work and take a good hard look at how your truck compares to those from the 1990s or the early 2000s. Unless it’s specialized, does it have a bigger bed? Is the bed at a reasonable height for lifting things in and out of, or is it needlessly tall? Where are your spark plugs - do you need to take the entire cab off to access and replace them? How tall is the hood - when you hit a pedestrian, do they roll on top of the hood and survive or do they go under the vehicle and get dragged along and killed? Can you see around your vehicle enough to park and maneuver easily, or do you require a dedicated GPU and camera system that renders a 3D image of your surroundings because otherwise you couldn’t park your rig because you can’t see a single thing within 30 ft of your vehicle in any direction? When something goes wrong and your vehicle needs work, do you have to take it to a specialized mechanic to fix it, or can you take it to almost any mechanic to fix? Better yet, can you do some real work and fix it yourself, or does it require proprietary tools and specialized software to maintain?
You tell me: what is needed and what is not needed? New trucks suck. They are bloated, ostentatious pieces of trash.

Gas Tax covers the damage.

Excuses.
If you dont know what you are talking about then dont be a critique. Do some hard work and then you will get it.

I literally had a smaller vehicle before, and it didnt work. Again, do some real work so you actually understand what is needed and not needed.

Obviously I am not going to read that much from a flame thrower like you.
