      The issue is folks using them as daily drivers in congested areas. A pickup absolute serves a specific purpose for hauling / towing, construction workers / worksites / handywork etc.

        We don’t see many over here in Europe. I guess real Americans need to do real American work!

        Joke aside, vans usually do the job better than trucks.

      Those kind of truck ain’t all bad, it’s the best offroad machine if you live in rural area where the road is either badly damaged or gravel road.

      The issue is really just people driving in the city 100% of the time.

        There’s something to that I think.

        I ride a mountain bike. Not because I do hardcore mountain biking but because the flat country roads I ride are so full of potholes or simply unpaved it might as well be a trail. So I ride a bike that I know can handle the works parts of my riding. But I know I’m not riding the best bike for the majority of my use case.

        Kinda (note I’m saying kinda) the same thing with trucks. People want potential capability wether or not they actually use it like it was supposed to. They use it for the same shitty roads, bad weather, and every so often actually moving things from place to place.

        But they are way overkill for most people and most of them know it. There is a market for small trucks that is being ignored and I hope that changes in the future.

    Cybertruck, cybertruck, does whatever a cybertruck does. Can he swing from a web, no he can’t 'cause he’s a truck. Lookout… here comes cybertruck!
