Fuck Trucks 🖕

American pickup trucks; those gaudy, humungous, unnecessary, pedestrian-killing, environment destroyers. Fuck people who own these to feel "tough" and compensate.

I don’t need an obese truck or SUV.

Few people do.

And even those that actually do truck things (read: haul shit) could have smaller, yet stout and pedestrian-safe trucks.

The painter and electrician I know prefer vans. I’m no expert though.

I hate my 2500 but it’s one of three offerings with a diesel for towing. I tried really hard to make something like an Isuzu NPR work since it is shorter and I can actually see what’s in front of me.

Oh and just putting a diesel in a small truck does jack shit as they don’t change the suspension of axles for the needed ratings. Diesel is just a part of a bigger picture.

I would take a van but gooseneck/fifth wheel hookups don’t work.
