I think this is in response to stupid large truck vs kei truck thread that made the front page. All the car brains are going on about how everyone ever needs a stupid large truck to tow 85 boats at once
By law they are separate and distinct.
Trucks are subject to less environmental regulations (emissions, mpg)
are allowed to not conform as closely to automobile standards (the reason why you see trucks with the hood above the height of small children, and you need a stepladder to climb in)
and also have to pass different crash tests to be considered “road safe” (a truck only has to not annihilate another truck in a crash test, but crash tests aren’t done with say a truck and a motorcycle, or a truck and a small car)
That thread was specifically telling craftspeople that they could do their jobs with the little Kei truck rather than a larger one.
If you use your truck for actual work, you want it to be able to do the job. The Kei truck cannot do the same job as the big truck.
It was a stupid comparison. It’s like telling someone that they don’t need a bucket truck to work on overhead lines or do tree trimming, they can just use a ladder hauled around in a Kei truck. See? Stupid as fuck.
No, the correct post to make would have been to point out the obvious fact that 95% of those huge trucks sold are not used for any sort of work at all, they’re just expensive and obnoxious fashion statements.
Oh you mean those 4 door vans that are passed off as a truck? Yeah no one should get those, they can’t even tow all that well and what can you even use a 4 foot bed for? These are likely the same people that think you should get a $130k 5th wheel that is 32 feet long.
I would be mounting unnecessarily large firearms inside of my equally unnecessarily large truck, with a rear window sticker that says “Come And Take It”

This seems not very fuck cars but ok. Also who does not know you can tow with a car?

I find it very strange that Americans consider ‘trucks’ and ‘cars’ to be two separate things. Trucks are cars.

You are completely correct I was essentially trying to move along the conversation from the last post.

But I need it to compensate for my shockingly small penis.
Body shaming is stupid.
Alright, shockingly small penis energy.
Might I suggest instead firearms?

As one does, perfectly normal and all.
