And the one in-front is becoming legally impossible to drive.

I don't get why people think an ugly looking vehicle is a status symbol. To most, it symbolizes something completely different.

I saw some truck commercial yesterday where the thing was eighty thousand dollars AFTER all incentives and rebates.

I thought to myself that the people who are screaming about inflation and how the Democrat president is ruining their lives are the same people who are lining up to make crazy monthly payments into a vehicle that will immediately be upside down on the note.

Completely baseless assumption, but I think it's just a continuation of the phenomenon when toddlers get hyped for trucks/tractors/combine harvesters/anything that is big and loud, maybe because it's associated with power, I don't know. Some people just stay at this toddler's mentality and they see everything that's big and/or loud as something you can boast about. See also: loud exhausts, 6400 deciBel motorcycle sounds, etc.

I legitimately had a neighbor tell me "this is a truck neighborhood." In a "joking, not joking" sort of situation.

These trucks are also a very American thing. Rarely see that anywhere in Europe. Lots of toxic masculinity in the US

The Maverick seems like a reasonable size to me, but by the time I need to replace another car, I'm sure its size will have inflated beyond what I want.

I really miss my tiny 1986 Toyota Corolla. My 2016 Prius is not supposed to be a big car and yet it is still bigger than that Corolla. Both sedans. If anything, the Prius should be smaller because it's a hatchback and those used to be the smaller cars.

At the time, the Corolla didn't feel small either. Every car is too big now except maybe Minis and Fiats.

My imaginary dream car would be an EV Nash Metropolitan. It's got 2 doors, a front and a back seat and a decent-sized trunk. I don't haul stuff, there's only three people in my family, I really don't need anything else.

Get a Ford Econoline pickup and an electric conversion kit. No frunk at all!

I really wonder if enough of us with those exact desires pooled our resources if we could manage an old truck conversion service.

Was gonna turn my dad's old Ranchero EV when I inherited it before the turd totalled it, it's shockingly simple all things considered just pricey

I really wish two seat utility vehicle format in the spirit of the El Camino would be a thing again. Basically a station wagon size, but with an open bed. These could easily have bed covers in the same shape as a wagon as well, but removable to allow for taller items and a bed that can be hosed out.

The market shifting all in to four door cabs sucks.

While I agree with the sentiment, it is still annoying when they take up 2 parking spaces. They are just bad cars for cities and work better on rural areas.

black people voting was what ruined modern vehicles!

/s obviously.
