I love a good 8ft bed but I genuinely think we need to legislate out crew cabs. They basically never actually hold a crew, they basically serve as a trunk to protect the bed from scuffs.
Bring back trucks as an appliance. No you cannot lean the seat back, you're at work. Zero noise cancellation, hard plastics, crank windows.
You claim to be a big tough blue collar man, yet you need "luxuries"? Curious...
Anyone who needs to haul stuff for work already has a sprinter van or a busted up 20 year old f150/ranger. Ban assault trucks frfr.
All trucks should be limited to cab-over two-seaters to limit length and reduce blind spots.
My old boss had a dump truck like this and it was sick. That thing had the tightest turning radius because you're seated in front of the wheels. Very useful for work in a city
also turbodiesel inline 6s tuned for maximum efficiency, they could do 1000Nm of torque and average 50mpg
hard agree. i hate how difficult it is to find a truck in the US domestic market that isn't a crew cab. like you gotta do some kind of fleet services voodoo. and then all you end up with is some giant pedestrian killer 5000 anyway.
it's infuriating how they keeping making vehicles that are the "All New Everything to Everyone XLT". every new vehicle is an SUV or Crossover, which are already the same thing anyway, functionally. like an SUV is a truck body mutilated into a bigass 4 seater with giant cargo space, while a cross over is a huge sedan body mutilated into a bigass 4 seater with giant cargo space.
every auto commercial is celebrating how much cubic volume is INSIDE the seating area too, like i give a fuck. and of course it's too gigantic to operate in a parking lot without 4 cameras stitching together a live display of the vehicle's surroundings on the over engineered center console display.
when i was like 19, for a short time i got to use my grandfather's old Dodge Ram 50 pickup that he used to handiman shit around the old people's community he lived in. crank windows, no AC, no power steering (lol, admittedly that was a bit shit when doing a 3 point turn). it was like this
except it had an 88" wheelbase (7 + 1/3 feet). i did not appreciate what i had and didn't fight it when it was sold off to some tradesman. i would murder for a truck like that now. fucking king of the road. sumbitch did everything in one trip.
I spent a summer as a shop hand, and the shop truck was a early 90s 2wd 2 seater tacoma and that thing was so low to the ground stock. It was basically like 1.5 standard steps to step into the bed. So easy to load and unload.
Agreed. They're exempt from certain laws and regulations due to being work trucks. So they should once again be designed for the purpose of being work trucks. Like they used to be.
Plastics? My old man’s pick up had a metal dashboard by gum
Front teeth? never heard of em
well to be fair you're not gonna need your teeth after the steering column impales your sternum
