Where I live on Vancouver Island you need a 4x4 and a truck makes the most sense because 4runners are too expensive

Also because it literally never stops raining it’s useful to have a place to put wet things outside of the cab

Because those are the literal only two types of 4x4 in existence, right? Smaller cars don’t ever have 4x4 capability

Also because it literally never stops raining it’s useful to have a place to put wet things outside of the cab

Plastic liner or bin in the trunk. Bonus that it won’t keep getting more wet

I love seeing people insecure as fuck because hey actually know deep down they don’t need the truck, so they come up with “reasons” they need it

Spoken like someone who’s never had a car buried up to the rocker panels in mud or snow and needed extra ground clearance to get out.

Prolly cuz I’m not stupid enough to drive my car off-road if it ain’t capable of handling the terrain.

I have taken appropriately lifted vehicles off-road many times, though, and many of them weren’t big ass lifted trucks because that’s rarely what’s actually needed. Oh, and even if you do need said lift, a truck ain’t even the best vehicle for that purpose.

But go on, keep pretending the .01% of truck owners actually travelling through 4ft of mud to get to and from their farm are the normal use case for trucks.

We need ground clearance too lol

Also awd isn’t 4x4

Also if you put wet things inside the cab and turn on the heater you are going to have a condensation nightmare

Maybe stay in your own lane gamer dude

And there are vehicles other than trucks or 4-runnerd that have that.

Never said AWD, I said 4x4

Also if you put wet things inside the cab

Never said put it in the cabin, I said put it in the trunk

I’d love to, but these oversized pavement princesses are forcing me to dodge around them because they can’t control a big, heavy vehicle.

Uh oh, found the terminally online guy.

Nobody is “insecure” about owning a truck, because normal people just use their vehicle as they see fit. They aren’t worried about what some basement dweller thinks of their vehicle use lol

Peak brain dead take of the whole thread ⭐

Homie I can see you and at least one other person whining in every thread possible about how your use case is valid

They aren’t worried about what some basement dweller thinks

Nice ad hominem, bud, really shows you’re not defensive. How about the opinion of someone on land with livestock, yet doesn’t feel the need to own a truck? Isn’t that, like, the exact person you guys claim needs one so desperately after all?

This is the kind of nuance Lemmy isn’t prepared for. You either hate trucks, or fuck you
