The US needs to stop giving special tax breaks to giant trucks.

[-] TaiCrunch@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 months ago

It's not a tax break. Emissions standards for vehicles were established a couple decades ago. Some lobbying happened, as it does, and an exception was given to pickup trucks. Not an exception carving out work trucks in particular, just all pickups. Then someone had the idea to build a minivan around a pickup truck chassis and now we have SUVs everywhere.
