I live in Germany, and I spotted one of these trucks recently. It looked huge compared to every other vehicle on the road, and one of those was a delivery van. And it was too big for its parking spot. It also had a confederate flag in the back window.
It'd be some tasty schadenfreude to put parking fine after parking fine. Or even just straight up impound it. It would surprise me if there isn't some German law or regulation that forbids such cars, same with the Cybertruck.
Want your stupid preference that is a detriment to everyone around you? Sorry, we don't do that here.
Someone in the dorm I lived in had a Ford Ranger. Even though it's one of Ford's smaller pickups, it looked very oversized compared to everything else in the parking garage.
...the original compact ford ranger was a great little truck!..the midsized replacement forsook its charm, though...
...i'm not even sure who makes compact trucks in australia anymore, but they're not sold stateside...
yeah that sounds about right, it's basically the extent of most of these things.
WTF, I didn't even know that was a thing outside the U.S. Do they claim "it's our heritage not hate?"
i think the confederate flag, or a very similar flag often confused for the confederate flag is often related to UK history? Still doesn't explain why it's in germany, but it makes more sense, at least.
I didn't get to talk to the owner.
