The meme format is meant to be ironic, with an opinion full of holes and cadence similar to Lrrr from Futurama. Though that typo looks like an overzealous autoconnect.
I don’t like to use the handles. They are so high up that it get’s uncomfortable and when I pull down to stabilize, my Fingers usually get squished. Most of the times when I use the handles, blood starts to leave my arm. Maybe the handles in my buses just really suck but I always use the bars or anything else to stabilize.
Having trees != ecosystem. The mere presence of tons of roads, buildings, and infrastructure (not to mention monocultured grass lawns, pesticides, herbicides, etc.) is super disruptive to ecosystems. If our cities needlessly sprawl all over the place, we’re forced to drive more, pollute more, spend more (all that infrastructure and cars are super expensive!), and our built environment disrupts much more actual ecosystems.
I’ve always wondered what you need that big a car for, unless of course if you live somewhere in the wilderness of nomandsland.
Here in Europe it is rather rare to see a truck, which I guess makes sense as don’t have as wild and unsettled nature as the USA, and that our parking spots are too small for trucks.
The cabin is likely larger than the bed or if not, off by foot. because of Redneck Luxury > Utility.
Can you imagine the engineers at Nissan, they must have had trouble releasing this vehicle because since day one draft to first production they were laughing at the ‘u like hotdog u like hamburg big fat americans’…and those americans, bought the truck. probably for over ~65k USD after the Lease and a comically sized 30 year car loan interest rate.
my car is a 1.4 Four Cylinder that has 7 gears? idk what hyaundai is doing giving smol car lambo gears but, i have no issues keeping up with traffic from rural, to highway, to road. And there are aftermarket roof racks should i need to “carry something big in my boot”
I just drive a subcompact hatchback and it’s perfect. Yeah I can’t haul a bunch of crap with several people in the car, but that’s a rare situation to even want. I can fit a fair bit in my trunk when I need to and 5 people when I need to. All with crazy high mpg for a non hybrid, an insane turn radius, and the ability to fit into tiny parking spaces.
And as someone reasonably tall, I fit fine. My wife was hesitant to get such a small car with such a tall wife, but I know a guy in the upper 6’ range who was totally comfortable driving a subcompact for years and loved the thing.
I’d prefer a bikable area with comprehensive public transit, but since I need a car I try to use as efficient as I can.
I’m seeing more and more American import trucks downtown. Seen one with a bunch of American-political stickers on it, including a confederate flag. It’s baffling how successfully America exports its culture to places where it isn’t welcome.
I don’t like the fact that bad history and terrible political views are considered American culture, but I guess I can’t exactly blame anyone for seeing it that way.
The Kremlin supports the political extremes on both sides in the US in order to cause division and dysfunction. They mostly do it on social media, which is where a lot of people get their info about the US.
The Kremlin wish they had that kind of influence. The political divide in America is entirely a home-grown issue. As long as you folk are fighting red vs blue, you’re not talking about the real issues.
Titans XDs are weird. They sit between 1/2 ton 3/4 ton. You’d get it if you need to tow a medium sized power boat, RV, or heavy/multiple cars but don’t want to upgrade to a true 3/4 ton.
I have often had this thought when driving around for parking at a mall in rural America. Wouldn’t a parking garage greatly reduce walking time into the store and save enough space to add more stores? But you see tons of small towns in America with laws against parking structes to “protect their small towns appeal”. Because as we all know the reason why people more to small towns is for the love of driving in a parking lot.
Bed is too tall and too short, and four full size doors on a mini truck are entirely unnecessary. Four doors on any truck is ridiculous, and it looks like they’re not made for work at all but for weekend Costco runs
last time I filled my jeep, gas was around $2.00/gal and pickups were just starting the dino-grill trend. 2020. model 3 is the quickest car I ever owned. sticker shock is real but would have been making payments anyway. still have a gas mower but looking at a robot fix for that chore. sux to be u
