Comparison left vs right for a craftsman who doesnt know which one he should buy:

  • l/r same bed size

  • r lower bed for way easier loading/unloading

  • r less likely to crash

  • r less fuel consumption and costs

  • r less expensive to repair

  • r easy to park

  • r easy to get around in narrow places like crowded construction sites or towns

  • r not participating in road arms race

  • l You get taken serious by your fellow carbrained americans because ""trucks"" are normalized and small handy cars are ridiculed.

So unless you are a fragile piece of human, choose the right one.

Canada winters are overblown. Unless you're literarily in the middle of a massive snow storm, the roads will be clean and reasonable. None of these f150 are bought for their winter dominance. In fact I've seen more of them in ditches than regular cars.

Something like 40% of Canadians live below the 45th parallel. Journey sucks at geography, south Detroit would be Windsor Canada.
