They blind everyone on the road because their headlights are at eye level for normal cars.

>I've noticed used boats rarely get any use.

Thats an environmental issue. If your boat goes on the sea/ocean and you dont use it for 3 months you have at least 12 hours worth of repairs to get it back on the water. And that figure compounds 50% on top of base the longer you leave it. So many people who leave their boat for a year arent willing to put in a weeks work plus several thousand dollars to get it barely sea worthy

Because of this.

These trucks with the super high front and awful visibility are causing more accidents and killing more people.
>>
Trucks have created this illusion of being safer by being bigger with the idea being that they will just destroy whatever they hit.

On the one hand this is slightly true and that they will almost certainly kill whatever they hit including being deliberately designed to go over cars compromising the safety barriers of those cars. The super high and flat front also result in catastrophic injuries to any pedestrian's hit.

Ironically these trucks are not actually safer in the majority of crashes and collisions, being far more likely to roll over and lose control resulting in flips and spins causing much more unpredictable and dangerous injuries. They also generally far more likely to get into accidents because the majority of them are massively overpowered, very large with strange weight distribution and are quite literally industrial vehicles that should require specialist licenses to operate

The likelihood of this vehicle causing excessive injuries to the people around you mean that yes the owning one of these makes your bad person.

I dont know much about other makes but realistically newer F series trucks are not that much bigger than their equivalent cab predecessors, despite having deeper beds, more torque, more than double the HP, and significantly higher towing and hauling capacity which are the things I care about when shopping for a truck.
>>
>>28095530
>The super high and flat front also result in catastrophic injuries to any pedestrian's hit.
this is the problem. the tall flat surface of those front ends is very effective at transmitting energy to a pedestrian's body.
if you get run over by a sedan, you generally bend and hit the hood (hence euro legislation about hoods being safer for pedestrians), and depending on speed, you either go over the car or get thrown back).
this sucks, but it sucks a lot less than what happens if you get hit by a truck. in that case, your entire body gets accelerated to 20/30/however many mph almost instantly, generating who the fuck knows how many Gs, and then you go flying off with that speed, so you also have the landing to look forward too.
oh, and if the truck is going slow enough to not launch you, you're probably going under it, not over it.

everything else you posted is bullshit. modern megatruggs and suvs ARE safer than smaller vehicles, and they don't roll over or whatever else. they also are expensive af and worse than sedans in many other ways, but occupant safety is not one of them.
>>
>>28095659
Fucker went straight on in a right turn lane. I hope it bloody well hurt.
>>
>>28093469
Whether or not most people use them for practical purposes modern trucks are far superior in HP, torque, and towing capacity. They’re even comfortable as Hell and spacious. Even modern midsize trucks which don’t have the abundant room or torque specs that full sizes do can still tow more than one of those OBS trucks. The only thing those old trucks have going for them is aesthetic, and probably superior payload rating, but that might be debatable.

Boomers fall on both ends of that spectrum. Sometimes you get "I KNOW WHAT I'VE GOT" faggots and sometimes you get some old guy who just wants to get rid of something. The first one usually goes by Kelly Blue Book value +20% and the latter just comes up with a completely arbitrary price that isn't at all adjusted for inflation or market trends.
>>
I don't hate the trucks unless they are truly retarded, like a massive lift and tires with almost no side wall or stupid lights in the wheel wells. Oh, and they their truck, but they don't re-aim the headlights.

What I hate about modern trucks is the drivers. They are bullies on the road always merging abruptly without signaling. Recklessly passing in no-passing zones. While not limited to big trucks, they do gun it in neighborhoods.

It is all a superiority complex, just like kids who had shoes with little air pumps. The difference is that air pumped shoes aren't going to cut you off at 80mph.

Trucks are basically the only way to buy a durable vehicle with a large motor today. A good portion of the people who own them just want to comfortably ride on crappy roads and be cozy on long road trips. The bed space is literally just a formality so that the vehicle can actually have horsepower

Bigger cars, the suvs and american pickups, make people worse drivers.

Not only are they more difficult to control but people driving them feel less concerned with driving safely. People in larger cars are more likely to speed and the more likely to cause accidents through dangerous driving.

I'm not saying that these cars should be banned but there needs to be a regulation over some of their design features such as the front, and perhaps there needs to be some kind of additional license required

Maybe if you're a multi millionaire. Here in North America you can be a fast food worker and drive a WRX on TE37's or a pretty new lifted truck if you're smart with your finances. That just simply isn't happening in Europe. The fuel cost alone on a 12mpg truck puts trucks out of reach for 99% of the population. Hell even my SUV isn't legal to drive on a normal license there.

Can't find the pics from the other one, but the damage to the other car was even worse, brand new Camry possibly totaled with how badly the rear quarter was punched in.

I find people who think their ute is big to be hilarious, it's like how truck drivers think they are king dick until they come to get loaded on a mine site

Prevention is key. Don't live in an area where this happens frequently. Always carry. Keep your head on swivel. Shoot first(as required for self-defense) ask questions later. No warning shots or bullshit like that. Finally, if someone is worth shooting once they are worth shooting multiple times.

He should have noticed them from down the road. Situations like these is why i still carry around my own house.

My favorite frame in this video is when the airbag explodes in that dude's face. Driving on roads is a social activity, you can't nigg off and think the road revolves around you.

Also, old trucks can tow circles around nu-trucks, you won't see a $100,000 plastic 2025 abomination doing this:

No they really do kind of suck at towing comparatively.Shit like that is just fancy advertising and not a whole lot of weight. But you would know that if you’ve driven both.

LOL that still has the sales sticker in the window!

I get you'd rather own the truck and stuff, but a quick check on uhaul tells me that I can rent a 26 foot box truck for 5 days, and if I drove it 200 miles, it would cost me a grand total of about 500 bucks.

so it really does seem like, if you really just haul something like a boat twice a year, and you spent 60 grand on a truck, when it would of cost you like a grand a year instead to just rent one?

Sticker caused the accident, placed directly in the blind spot. Ez lawsuit win vs dealershit.

>old trucka can tow circles around nu-trucks
Spoken like someone who has never towed and never owned a truck. Brakes have gotten significantly better, engines have gotten better, frame compositions have gotten better, we can run computer simulations now to better design suspension geometry that can adapt to bigger loads. I love old trucks dont get me wrong, but the difference between towing with an old truck and a new truck is night and day. I have a 2000 F-350 7.3/CC/SB/DRW. In its day it was "the truck" for towing. Despite that its got a GVWR of just 11k lbs. I have a 2017 F-150 with a GVWR of 8k lbs and it can get that up to speed and stop it with ease. My only real complaint is stability, but its also a 1/2 ton with soft 1/2 ton suspension. I've driven a few SRW 6.7 alumiduty F-250s and they tow and handle leagues above my old(er) F-350 with a GVWR to match, most of them being 15k+ lbs. I plan on buying one in the next 2 years.

It hurts to admit, but the Maverick was a great choice from Ferd. I kneel. Cool little truck, I just didn't buy one because I can't wrap my mind around having the chance to get one for less than 30k and now they are more than 40k out of the door.

I came really close to getting one when they came out, even test drove one. It was hard to get the right options and not pay a giant markup though and a 2 year old 4WD Ranger was cheaper than Maverick MSRP with the setup I wanted, and in hindsight going with the midsize was a good idea because I've done a lot with it that the Mav couldn't.
