See it is like a van, but somehow...... worse.
That genuinely looks like an early ai generation of a truck, is that where they got this idea?

That's not a truck; that's a limousine with truckly aspirations.
"One day I will be as rugged as my dad, and as elegant as my mom."
Hey we have one of these in my old town too.
There is a company in the city I live that has stretch limo F150's and Hummers you can rent out for shit. Imagine what you're seeing in this image but 2 to 3 times longer.
If I ever get a terminal illness I am going to spend the rest of my days slashing the tires of every overside truck I see.
Valve cover off, small rock in valve cover, valve cover back on.
Easier to clip the valve stems.
Eh good chance they will not notice and these things are over $100k so likely the monetary aspect will be shrugged off.
You underestimate the rate of deficit spending some men in the country engage in for their gender affirming vehicles...
You say that till your having it towed for a flat tire at every corner...
So what should I do? I want to ruin these people.
Dankpods replaced the engine oil on a car with chocolate. Only ran for 35 seconds before it seized.
What can you do that they are not already doing to themselves? I mean look at what they drive.
They are to stupid to realize that though.
Christ, and here all I want is a small cargo van and Ford decides to discontinue selling the Transit Connect here, while in Europe they are starting to sell an electric version of the same thing.
Yeah, can't have small trucks anymore ether. But this thing is available?
Right!?!?! Check out the Hilux Champ they are selling in Thailand. I would kill for an electric version of that for daily driving in the city and whatever DIY/hardware store needs I may have. I don't need to hall heavy things just awkward and large things.
Twin Axel small displacement turbo diesel..... Omg.
See that was one thing I was hoping for with electric, Odd small trucks making a come back. But nope, just Ferd F-teenthousand all the way down now.
It wouldn’t be American if you weren‘t able to take your tank to grocery shopping on your flatbed. Freedom baby
This is in fact not American.
A van could transport the people, but what about his emotional support refrigerators? They won't fit in a van.
Texan here. I have seen a lot of trucks.
is that real?…
Yes, this is Alberta. Guess everything is bigger here....
I feel like I lost and won at the same time.
Could you imagine driving this thing in a city?
Why is this bad and van is good?
Vans are more fuel efficient, smaller and lighter than trucks while generally performing most/all of the same duties just as well if not better
I didn't know vans were particularly fuel efficient. That's interesting. They're rounded but their faces are so flat, it seems like a lot of surface area.
Does that include US marketed inventories as well?
Space, cost, fuel use, visibility.
