Considering you have absolutely no idea of what he does on a daily basis and no idea of how often he needs the vehicle for those situations. Plus no idea of his parking space. I’m not sure how you are able to tell him what he should buy.
I didn’t? Like I explicitly didn’t. I explicitly say up there that I get it and even if I think it’s not optimal you get to buy stuff you like that’s not optimal because you think it’s cool.
This only reinforces my point about the sheer, unbridled rage this subject triggers in a certain stripe of car people, and it’s both hilarious and kinda terrifying.
The only rage here is you against literally anything that has an open bed, even if it is the same size and gets the same mileage as a compact car.
I swear to you, if I ever have any kind of emotion towards “anything that has an open bed” beyond mild bemusement I will quit the Internet, abandon the concept of self-propelled vehicles and ride a donkey to a mountain monastery to rethink my life.
I just didn’t know you could get people on the Internet to froth at the mouth by implying that pickup trucks aren’t perhaps the most efficient mode of transportation until a couple of weeks ago. Now that I do know it feels irresponsible not to use this power. Especially when somebody brings up how culturally strange some purchasing choices are in the US.
