I drive the White car… Parked it in the lot for work, came out to this fuck off Nissan, next to me, Lined up parallel with my car, so i snapped a couple of pictures to show you how obnoxious Trucks have gotten, as if you didn’t already know.

It’s hard to argue when a monolith on wheels is in front of your face. :/

    The cabin is likely larger than the bed or if not, off by foot. because of Redneck Luxury > Utility.

    Can you imagine the engineers at Nissan, they must have had trouble releasing this vehicle because since day one draft to first production they were laughing at the ‘u like hotdog u like hamburg big fat americans’…and those americans, bought the truck. probably for over ~65k USD after the Lease and a comically sized 30 year car loan interest rate.

    my car is a 1.4 Four Cylinder that has 7 gears? idk what hyaundai is doing giving smol car lambo gears but, i have no issues keeping up with traffic from rural, to highway, to road. And there are aftermarket roof racks should i need to “carry something big in my boot”

      I just drive a subcompact hatchback and it’s perfect. Yeah I can’t haul a bunch of crap with several people in the car, but that’s a rare situation to even want. I can fit a fair bit in my trunk when I need to and 5 people when I need to. All with crazy high mpg for a non hybrid, an insane turn radius, and the ability to fit into tiny parking spaces.

      And as someone reasonably tall, I fit fine. My wife was hesitant to get such a small car with such a tall wife, but I know a guy in the upper 6’ range who was totally comfortable driving a subcompact for years and loved the thing.

      I’d prefer a bikable area with comprehensive public transit, but since I need a car I try to use as efficient as I can.
