Rule #1: Never post a video when an article will suffice. Most people don’t have the time (or an appropriate setting) to watch a video, but all of us have 60 seconds to read a condensed list of tips.

Just like a sports car, for most owners it’s about image and a small percentage about actual use. In the truck’s case, they want to look tough by appearing to have a job that requires physical work instead of sitting in a soul-crushing cubicle cell in an office zoo (pre-pandemic). Weak people also like them because it…

And yet people in other countries do all of those things with Global-sized trucks. They often have higher payload capacity than than most “1/2 ton” US pickups too.

I think you misunderstood my post. I was not targeting enthusiast priorities at all, although trucks certainly fail against other vehicles in every enthusiast category. I was pointing out that trucks fail against other choices in every single category, outside of their utility capabilities. So if someone doesn’t…

There's consumer available fully rechargeable electric submersible. I think we can figure out the trucks.

I think two were omitted:

I have to admit that owners’ obsessions with their tall blocky luxury vehicles with the exposed trunks amazes me to no end.

I’ve been alive for over 4 decades and have been rabidly enthusiastic about automobiles for nearly that long. Nevertheless, I still cannot get my head around the desire by many to own a pickup truck as a primary vehicle when they have no regular need for its additional utility, if at all. Pickup trucks are a trailing…

Are you kidding?  It’l be way more than that.

Or they could just discretely tuck an extra-large packer into the glove box of every brand new electric F-150. Cut out the subtext and run an ad campaign with the slogan: “The all new Electric F-150 from Ford: we’ll  make your dick look huge.”

This. I’ve literally moved people who own trucks because mine is used for truck stuff and they spent 70k to never take the cover off the bed. So that 94% seems real high 

Proof that survey questions are dumb, people who answer surveys are dumb, and articles written about both are especially dumb.

As for helping with a truck. That’s the one thing I miss about my ratted out S-10. We had a tornado and I was the only person mobile for the neighborhood. Not because the roads were hard to drive, but because nobody wanted to damage their $50k truck’s paint job. I picked up 4 generators with my S-10 (one trip at a…

The rest of the world lives well with 260-200 hp four cylinder (five to some markets Ford Ranger) turbodiesel trucks. Why can’t you guys be normal like everyone else?

flip that 6 upside down, and you’ll have your price.  Plus it will only be available in Platinum trim or higher

Simply not paying is an option too. We were awarded restitution for a totaled motorcycle as part of the driver’s DUI plea deal; we’ve seen maybe $60 in 8+ years. There are no consequences, apparently.

You hear about it in nature, but until you see a mother Honda try to eat her young at 65 mph you really can’t fathom the bloodthirst. 

The van driver should have pulled over on his own Accord. Now he’ll going to get a Civic lesson on hit and runs. Hopefully the punishment Fits the crime and he goes on an Odyssey to his local penitentiary.

$10 says the panic is due to being uninsured.

It’s the left turn signal as he makes his way to the shoulder/exit on the right that really makes the video for me .
