    Lol. That’s not even big compared to some of the ones around here. The thing has a moderate leveling kit to give it more ground clearance. Douche nozzles around here easily stick on 6 inch leveling kits. Heck, I’ve seen guys take F-650s or comparable, and turn them into pickups.

    I don’t get it.

    I have newer honda pilot, and that thing is a boat. I only like it because kids + hockey means I need a fair bit of storage space, and it’s great in snow. I drove a Mazda 3 before kids, and was plenty happy in that.

      People only need trucks of they do truck stuff like hauling or towing. But you don’t need something that sticks out that far.

        Maintaining my own home and garden justifies the continued use of my 98 pickup, plus I’m “the friend with a truck”, but it’s not my daily car and I dread the day I have to replace it. Contemplating an EV conversion kit if it can manage the same loads.
