I mean, US infrastructure isn’t made for these beasts either.
I hate to say it, but that looks like a pretty small truck.
Source: I'm Texan but don't hold it against me.
Seems to be what those in most of the US would call a standard size pickup truck. Not “compact” like a Hilux/Tacoma, nor comically oversized like the oft-lifted 3/4 or full-ton trucks.
Hang on a sec a Hilux is considered a compact truck in America? That's a big old car where I'm from...
Yup, it would be considered a compact like the Toyota Tacoma, Chevrolet Colorado, ect
God bless - nothing wrong with having the right tool for the job and not being frivolous. I too have an overly large truck but it's a 3/4 ton (2500 HD) and almost 15 years old. I don't drive it more than necessary but I own 20 acres and often enough I need to tow, haul or pull something that I couldn't do without it. I'm going to keep this thing on the road until it dies or there's an economically viable green alternative. But it's crazy to think of the resources that go into a new one and I couldn't justify it for a few mpg better, so I'm very happy to have a trustworthy mechanic 😁
And, while I really like the Rivian and the F150 lightening, they would be glorified very expensive toys and I'd still need to keep my big truck for the hard jobs, so they'll wait till I win the lottery ¯(ツ)/¯
Looks like a Ram 1500, so not a small small truck like a Tacoma or ranger. It’s a decent sized truck, just got the short box 5’-8”.
I still don't understand what the point of a short box is. You can fit a decent amount of materials in it but why not just go for a full size box. Go figure.
I’ve got one, I can still haul anything 12’ and under legally with with tailgate up/down and flagged. And it gives me enough room to haul my kids around in the backseat.
A full size bed can’t have a crew cab, and any combination over that won’t fit in a 20’ garage, so you would need a non-standard “deeper” garage.
They fit a niche, just like most things. It’s not meant for everyone.
Saw another post on here about how ridiculously oversized the Ranger parked next to them was. Had to laugh as an American, can't even imagine how some of the 3500 brodozers you see here would look on a European street
It is in Texas. I have a pretty small car, and when I lived in California, I was constantly barely able to fit in parking spaces. In Texas, the parking spaces are huge to fit the trucks. It's so nice.
Fit the trucks and the people.
Yes it is, to say it isn't is just a lie, even if only one due to being under informed. To put it like this, talking about big rigs, 18 wheelers, or whatever you would like to call them, here in the US you mainly see "long nose" (American) styles, although yes you do still see "flat nose" or "cab over" designs, they are the European style, as the roads in Europe tend to be smaller than here in American, mainly due to some of those roads being much older than the USA is.
