Ford Ranger + 3.5 L EcoBoost V6 GO!!! I can dream...

18,000 rpm maximum engine speed (2013 version)

This, maybe?

Then you have the asshole sports car drivers who like to race motorcycles (or other such activities) on the weekend. They fiercely defend their standpoint on why they don't need a truck and why trucks are stupid even though it would obviously make towing a motorcycle(s) and gear so much easier

I actually own such a Ranger. It's capable, but that 2.3L is pathetic without a 4:10 axle, plenty for daily driving, but max out the payload and that 2.3L is just not enough.

Agreed. I would like to have a late-80s S-10, but that's because that is the vehicle I want. I believe a lot of folks want a larger truck, because that is the vehicle they want.

I'm probably one of the people that you are annoyed by but I just wanted to say that, although this may not make sense, I completely agree with you about the Ram Express being really practical. I think your point actually highlights exactly the problem with the truck market that a striped-down full size has th same…

I agree with you on this. There is a huge double standard with folks about trucks. Because some folks don't use 100% of their capability all the time, the stereotype is that NO ONE uses them like they should. There's also the fuel guzzler argument, which is really funny coming from the same site that worships cars…

Well yeah I could never stop anyone from buying what they want. I do like trucks a lot actually its just I never saw the point of having one and not using it to it's intended purpose.

I'm wondering if the 4 and the diesel can actually break 30 mpg highway. That would be my real litmus test.

Here is my counterpoint. While my personal opinion agrees with a lot of people saying this truly isn't a small truck, a small truck would not have fulfilled a key part of having a utility vehicle. Towing. Too small of a truck and you're going to get dominated by almost anything you tow. They need to find that…

Chrome isn't always the right look. Polished or brushed aluminum can be a great supplement for chrome.

I like Big Blocks and I cannot lie...

As accountants drive Accords, you should know that statement doesn't add up.

Have fun with your FWD beigemachine.

This car was the dream. So yeah, I went to school, then grad school, got a job, and then plunked down enough money to buy one. Best decision ever.

Isuzu Vehicross. This is one I owned for 10 years up until 8 months ago.

Let's be real here: there just wasn't ever a concept car that forced pre-pubescent kids into puberty and grew hairs on our chests quite like the original Viper concept that made it almost entirely unscathed into production. It had no real reason to exist, other than the fact that it was pure, lethal essence of…
