Europeans are not "blocking" US supersized pick up trucks, they are for sale here. We do not buy them because of three reasons.1 - They are poorly made2 - They are unreliable3 - They are stupid>https://www.ft.com/content/3eb796fd-bcdb-4a9f-89b7-f7d5e692a3cd?syn-25a6b1a6=1
>supersizedYou forgot that bit.A regular Toyota crewcab is a bit large if you want to take it to the store.In its place they may be perfectly good, for most of Europe they're a bit like driving a rental truck every day.
>>28907878One of these with mud grips on it.
>>28907856
euros don't buy pickup trucks because pickup trucks are for land owners and euros are serfs.
>>28907856>all million mile vehicles are american pick up trucks>none of them are european anything???
>>28907898>Land owners>90% of all wealth in the US is owned by 1% (Jews)LolLmao
>>28907920still more land owners than europe.
>>28907856Your streets tend to be narrow designed for much smaller vehicles or carriages long ago. Probably just not practical for the location. US pickup trucks were made to be reliable over a decade or so ago, would run for 200K miles with basic oil change maintenance, but now they are not. EPA regulations caused them to be increased in size to be classed outside of tighter fuel economy standards. Then came the choking exhaust and emissions systems. Finally, they tried using smaller turbo engines on these large vehicles while using very thin viscosity engine oils to meet regulations, and reliability went to complete garbage, even with trusted brands like Toyota. Politicians and legislature inflated sizes while killing reliability.
>>28907920we're you trying to make a point but forgot that you're an idiot?
>>28907898>euros don't buy pickup trucks because pickup trucks are for land owners and euros are serfsHome ownership rates in the US: 65,7%Home ownership rates in Spain: 73,6%Home ownership rates in Italy: 75,1%Home ownership rates in Netherlands: 68,8%Home ownership rates in Poland: 87,2%Home ownership rates in Czechia: 75,1%Home ownership rates in Romania: 93,2%Home ownership rates in Lithuania: 88,8%go kysThe simple fact is that they are not practical for small European roads and parking lots.
>>28909748every land owner has a tractor and the weight limit for a traktor is high. Tractor trailers cant be towed by car. Tractors cost next to no tax, while a v8 pickup has the highest tax rates. The use case for a 3.5t limited pickup is almost nonexistant.
>>28909748> The simple fact is that they are not practical for small European roads and parking lots.This It’s the same reason literally everywhere in the US is wheelchair accessible while Europe is notoriously not so, 90 percent of the US was completely uninhabited until the 20th century People forget that the Wild West was literally the last 19/early 20th century, it was barely 100 years ago while for instance the pantheon in Italy is 2000 years old
>>28909993>everywhere in the US is wheelchair accessibleAmerican castles are.
>>28909748"Home" in europoor countries usually means an apartment in a commie block hellscape.Now post the "house" statistics.
>>28907914>laughs in w124's>>28907925>Your streets tend to be narrow designed for much smaller vehicles or carriages long ago. Probably just not practical for the location.Narrow streets aren't some immutable characteristic that a country has like mountains and coastlines, It's just a matter of government policy. After the war plenty of cities were rebuilt with wide multi lane roads everywhere only for those roads to be narrowed or torn down completely later on. You're 100% right about regulations though. That + cheap abundant oil + "bigger = better" mentality is why big pickups are so much popular in the US.>>28910043Your cardboard mcmansions aren't real houses either anon.
>>28910054>Your cardboard mcmansionsDon't mention sheds, it'll all go down hill from there.
>>28910043NTA but I found this. As with everything it depends on where You live. https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/interactive-publications/housing-2024
>>28907856>he's alone on a saturday posting cope about americans and their big scary trucks
>nobody:>Nobody at all:>Europeans:
>>28907856europe has such a thing called weather, and we've long deduced that the best way to protect cargo from weather is a vanamericans sometimes have weather too but their brains are corn syrup and they keep going "how could this happen to me?" when they wak up to a drivable bathtub
>>28911218They're awesome for landscape gardeners and people that dismantle trees.No, wait...
>>28911225you know, we don't have many of these, because we aren't much into this terraforming thing americans are obsessed with
>>28911287https://youtu.be/e3gS_xB4xksJust because.
>>28911287>We don't control our yards in GERMANY>Why do you care what your yard looks like?>Why do you have people whose job it is to plant trees?>We don't do that IN GERMANYWell we're not obsessed with invading Poland or unrestricted submarine warfare, Klaus. We still won both wars, so we get to do what we want to our yards.
>>28911299The Polish people I know would like a BFO moat like the English have, they're going home because that is their home.Remember this.
>>28910055>it's okay when we do it
Americans are so poor they need a working truck and a family car in one
>>28907898im rural and a land ovner, it makes no sense to own a pickup truck here. the typical farmer rig here is a caddy awd or a hilux 4x4.
>>28907898We use SUVs.
>>28910043>STOP THE COUNT STOP THE COUNT IT DON'T COUNTMake better utility vehicles if you want us to buy them.
>>28911207Germany used to put at least 10-15% of their GDP into their own military. Up to 75% at the height of the world wars. That's why they have nice healthcare and social welfare systems now. Just like the rest of Europe who don't run their countries like they used to. They've depended on the US for half a century. It's an odd thing how they're fairly intelligent, but have this huge blindspot.
>>28911624b0ngs are not europeans
I don't know bro, my poor as fuck Eastern European shithole puts the F-150 front and center on the official dealer page, as far as I know all the other countries focus on the e-slop and cuckovers.https://ford.inchcape.lvDodge RAMs are a relatively common sight.
>>28907898you can compare the land ownership from my flag to yours and you get blamed. but we still dont drive pickups, we drive vans.
>>28910043still beats this shit here:>>28910055
