Get this, a lot of Americans actually do like pickup trucks and are sick of the automotive journalists trying to convince us we should not.

Hard to take comments like yours seriously when you presume sooo much. It is interesting though that you appear to get upset when leanings are exposed or people seem to not be friendly to your politics.
Well excuse me. I didn’t know Jalopnik officially decided to suspend automotive content in favor of lightly veiled politics. Sounds like you need a safe place if a little light shined into the corners of The Morning Shift upset you so.
Pickups? This guy seems to hate anything associated with internal combustion, as if his entire lifestyle is made possible through wind-powered clipper ships (made with sustainable wood) plying the seas and covered wagons crossing the continent. I’m near-far-left socially and left-of-center fiscally, but this guy is in…
Another Large City based Jalopnik writer who doesn’t drive a car every day (even before the Pandemic) trying to tell the rest of the country what vehicles we should be buying, which based on his reviews is based largely on his single, cat owner, living in an apartment with no street parking lifestyle.
That is also a video game.
I come here for the unique, funny and interesting takes on the automotive world, not political themed news. Now tell me I’m wrong on today’s Morning Shift undercurrent.
I’m growing very tired of all the personal anti-truck sentiments. If it’s a news (morning shift) or review post, then keep your personal opinions to yourself and give us the news! It’s it’s an op-ed type piece, then rant away.
I would hope by now, you understood that Americans like a pickup truck. Maybe some of the…
I hope the trend of having to load pages on Jalopnik and other GMG pages several times to get the comment section to load goes away soon. I’ll take the “slideshow articles” as long as the comment section loads on the first try.
“Let me not say that too many people have grown accustomed to cheap air travel and the entire business is overblown, unsustainable, and reprehensible in these days of climate change. Let covid-19 say it for me!”
You don’t know jack shit about what things are going to look like in 18 months, so how about you stop pretending you do?
Today’s anti-capitalistic rant is brought to you by Amazon!

GMG: willing to bitch about everyone else’s money
This sites insistence on hating pickups is baffling. They are truly one of the best all round vehicles out their. Carry, haul, off road, and tow, they can be had at a wide range of price points, they are usually durable enough to last longer than most vehicles, and they hold their value better most things on the road.…
Wishful thinking. By Spring of 2021, everything will be back to business as usual.
That’s a side effect of the kind of work typically associated with low paying jobs - low skill/rapid turnover/easy to replace labor. Right wrong or indifferent, that’s why the low paying jobs are cut first. The majority of higher income employees in my area (Midwest) are high demand careers (STEM) and not as easy to…
Just go buy a new Camry already and be happy with another trouble-free 15 years.
I think it’s the M256. Amazing lump of motor...
