To make matters worse; lots of the trucks listed that I see on the roads have aftermarket larger “off road” tires and lift kits, making them a good 12+ inches taller than stock.
And of course, I see them hauling stuff in the bed or on a trailer about 20% of the time at most. But gawd damnit, they’re exercising their rahhts!!
making them a good 12+ inches taller than stock.
and much safer and more fuel efficient.
wait a moment… it makes a shitwagon EVEN worse handling and more gas guzzling?
Holy shit batman, it’s almost as if the owners of these shitwagons are giant assholes
That probably has something to do with the fact that the M1 Abrams was not intended as an overpriced status object designed purely to make spoilt and privileged suburbanites make themselves feel superior to anyone walking in the street.
To be fair, giant trucks are also designed to be exempted from emissions standards
That is a crazy sentence.
Its still objectively true the reason suvs and trucks are so common isn’t how good they are or anything its marketing from manufacturers to make more money from selling cars that avoid emissions standards aka SUVS and “light” trucks
