They’re doing it to themselves.

I forgot about the business branding. I will say that if you keep your truck clean and attractive I am much more likely to do business with you than the guy running a piece of metal strapping with drywall screws across the tailgate to hold it closed (I’ve seen it). Definitely agree on the stereotypical behaviors too,…

I think they take pride in their truck and want to show it off. If they have to drive it everyday why not make it look nice (nice is subjective to the owner)? I’m pretty sure most who lift their trucks with big tires understand the implications before they do it, otherwise I fully agree they are likely morons.

I fully agree with you. I only drive a 1500 with a level so nothing high riding there. My point was just that you can’t lump every truck like that into the “brodozers” category just because they’re big and have big tires. There’s a lot of these used for work and heavy tow loads.

I’m not saying there aren’t brodozers but there are also a lot of people who work these trucks day in and day out and still want to lift their truck 6" and put big tires on it. If you go to Instagram to the account Alumiduty you will see a ton of brodozers but also a lot of work trucks like this.

GM also owns Holden and FCA (Fiat Chrysler Automotive) owns Alfa, FIAT, Lancia and Maserati. Not to mention they still do sell the Challenger, Charger and 300.

I think you are about 95% completely accurate there. There of course are always outliers that won’t fit that which is why I say only 95 but yeah, that sums it up pretty well.

I’ve seen a lot of trucks that are lifted with big tires, etc and still go to work every single day. Look at all the horse hauling and farm trucks that pull heavy equipment around all the time and have 6+” lifts with 38+” tires.

Isn’t that what everyone does? lol. I obviously am wrong in my above statement but I have not heard any complaints about the new Fords or the new Chevy’s that are actual issues. I know the older Silverado’s had quite a few issues so I guess the Ford’s must have as well since they all seem about on par recently.

I know, I don’t believe it either lol

Chevy also had vibration issues in 2014+ trucks that never got resolved either and those issues are RIDICULOUS.

If they keep producing sedans now that people aren’t buying they will be losing money. At least they’re cutting their losses.

They sell lots of cars worldwide. I’m sure it wouldn’t take a ton of re-engineering to bring them back someday.

I think people just stopped complaining. I’ve already seen several videos online of Ram trucks that come with mismatching exterior trim and frozen/malfunctioning infotainment systems.

Kinja’ed again :(

Agreed, I was just pointing out that the 100k number is not incorrect. I feel like I just beat the internet. Do I get an award or something lol

Fair enough, here’s a list of big companies that laid off recently from a quick search.

GM alone laid off 15,000 people. I’m sure it wouldn’t take too many more companies before we hit 100,000.

No, they’re going to increase regardless of spending. Have you even read the “tax cut” that was passed?? We actually have to cut a number of programs just to keep the deficit from ballooning into uncontrollable territory.

Whoa, give the Amish some credit. I know Amish that don’t use electricity and have an outhouse and could still get a car running just as well as I could.
