While I generally dislike crossovers, I have a weird fetish for lowered crossovers. They look like the wagons they truly are.

I see a good number of them in my area, and I am always a bit surprised by just how tiny they are compared to modern trucks. 

I drive a current-gen Tacoma, and it is one of the smallest trucks on the market. However, I’d prefer an even-smaller truck. If Subaru still made the Brat or Baja, I’d probably have bought one of those.

My dad’s friend had one back in college, and he called it the Appliance. From the way he describes it, it was a gutless slug of a car that was devoid of any character.

Guy who worked as a landscaper for several years here.

Sweet Swede Speed in wagon form or a bloated gas-guzzling bus of an SUV. Hmm, tough choice.

Can confirm, it makes them way easier to parallel park.

Now, I know everyone likes to say that sitting higher off the ground is somehow safer, but the center of gravity in this beast has to be so high.

What do I title that as?

But can it do parking lot snow drifting?

Can confirm, parents had Pilots when I was a kid. Those things would toss you the fuck around back there. They had the slippery-ass leather seats, so you would always be having to brace yourself when cornering.

Only a few for me. I quite like the Mazda CX5, Subaru Crosstrek, and the Porsches are nice, too.

Nothing to say but “vehicular identity crisis”.

The smallest pickup you can buy new in the US right now is probably the Toyota Tacoma. I drive one, and it is not what I would call “small”. It’s definitely not as big as a full-size, but it is a far cry from the tiny 80s Toyota Trucks.

The Chicken Tax has stifled the small-truck market. Small trucks are for girls and homos, ya pinko bastard.

Sure, they can strap a pair of snails onto a V8, but still no turbo for the Tacoma’s 3.5. Sigh

Hell, that car doesn’t even look like a crossover. It’s almost in between a hatchback and a crossover.

I would drive the hell out of a TRD Sienna.

That was also Toyota, and it was another Tundra.
