In a general sense I agree that people who don't use their trucks for truck stuff shouldn't have them, but I also hate your communist anti-individual mentality. Suburban teenagers, white-collar workers, and heavy-equipment operators don't really need trucks, but in America it's their right to buy and do whatever they want to said trucks; even if that means raping them with useless mods and keeping them as far away from dirt as humanly possible. I don't like what they do, but I'll die for their right to do it.

>>29046744
Are you really suggesting people buy a crossover over a pickup truck?
>>
>>29046750
Where did I say that? I didn't mention crossovers once in my post. I will say however, that SUVs might be a better option for some of those people. I drive a 2012 Expedition as an apprentice diesel mechanic and it serves my needs just fine. Never had it break down or fail to start and it's nearing 190,000 miles.

>>29046502
TL; DR - Better handling vehicles are safer. Sports cars handle better.

No. But the better handling, acceleration, and generally better responsiveness overall has allowed me to dodge multiple accidents I would have otherwise gotten into with my old Avalon (RIP in pasta, I loved you). I will give you 2 examples. Earlier this week, an old man in a pickup ran a stop sign. He was on my right, I was in the right hand lane on a 2 lane road. Nobody in front of me, but someone holding my hand in the left and someone behind me. The person behind me slammed on their brakes and ran onto the shoulder. I just sped up and the truck missed my bumper by inches. My other example is one that happens often to me. I have a wide turn around a blind corner on my way to work. TRUGGS love to put their wheels into the oncoming lane. Last week, this happened right at the blind spot and I was able to miss his lifted TRUGG wheels by the length of my hand by swerving to the right onto the shoulder and back onto the road, narrowly missing a signpost as well. I would have hit the signpost in my Avalon.

>>29046754
If rule out trucks what does that leave? Crossovers... Are you really that out of touch with the modern SUV market? There are very few real SUV's left and the few that remain are priced a lot higher than a pickup for what you get. New car buyers don't give a shit about your old shitbox.

they aren't. look up the most wrecks by vehicle model per capita. it's mostly sports cars. people in sports cars have over confidence because like you, they think their car handling better means they can drive more recklessly.

Yes. Because this area (Central Valley of CA) is full of people who speed and run stop signs and drive on the wrong side of the road. I am unsure where in my post I make it obvious that I am speeding/overconfident/doing something illegal. I CAN tell you with confidence that it is thirdies/women/old people in beaters (and, for some reason, luxury vehicles) that break safety laws and cause potential accidents.
>>29048840
Oh I totally agree. I have seen THREE wrecked Chargers in the last 4 years because they thought they could take a 90° turn and ended up in someone's yard/farm. (2 were farms, and 1 was a white fence leading to a yard) It was literally the exact same mistake in the same town. Overconfidence combined with a lack of knowledge of what their vehicle can do. Understanding your machine's limitations and thus, what you can and cannot do is vital to safe driving. I know I can take a sharp turn at around 35 mph MAX. Anything over or in inclement weather and I am crashing. I know I can brake in reaction to someone else within about 10 car lengths at 55 (usual speed limit). I also know that once I go over 80, my braking takes much longer and so not to go that fast outside of empty highways. So how about this. You shut the fuck up since you clearly are an antagonistic asshole who knows absolutely fuckall about safe driving. Go learn how your shitty lifted and illegally tinted tacoma handles before you hit a law abiding citizen like me you fucking illegal no plates no insurance asshole.

claim. I can find nothing to support your arguement. Only that TRUGGS, Jeeps, BMWs (kinda supports your claim?), Tesla, and regular sedans cause the most accidents per capita. Seriously I am trying to prove myself wrong, and have been to over 20 sites. The only ones that say sports cars are in more accidents have no numbers or official research to back up their claims.
>>
>>29048840
You also completely igored my main point. A good driver can use their better vehicle and defensive driving to avoid accidents more easily than an unwieldy TRUGG or econobox.
>>
>>29048957
My point proven, I rest my case.
>>
>>29046502
No but I only take it out to go to the track. Imagine what a world we could live in if truck cucks drove normal vehicles 99.9% of the time and just used their truck when they actually need it.

>A good driver can use their better vehicle
No they can't. a retarded driver thinks their vehicle will help them avoid wrecks in some kind of burnout video game scenario and that's why they're more likely to end up in a crash. you're no different than a woman who thinks riding up higher makes her safer.

Tons of F1 drivers also crash expensive cars for this exact reason. the scenario you're making up doesn't exist.
>>
>>29048991
given you're a lying kike I believe you about as much as you believe truck guys need their trucks for work.
>>
>>29049400
>riding up higher makes her safer
It does for multiple reasons. One of them being that trucks completely ignore crumple zones of regular cars. If you rear end a trailer in a low car you literally lose your head. In a low car you’re also less likely to be seen by a bad driver. If you ride up higher you don’t get blinded at night by oncoming traffic with LED lights. You don’t get your FOV obscured by suvs and trucks. Etc etc

It is straight up safer to sit high.

You need to try really hard to roll a modern truck. The nannies will shut you down well before it happens. For every picture or video of a truck rolling I can show you a sports car doing the same.
>>
I don't think large trucks should be banned outright but they should be decentivized in some fashion. If you don't actually use your truck bed but just like driving a large vehicle because it makes you feel safer than fuck shouldn't we all drive tractor trailers then? Seems like the natural conclusion.

dunno about trucks but crossovers are hilariously easy to roll. i still remember watching a dashcam compilation and being surprised by the sheer number of crossovers that rolled over even when they got mildly t-boned.
>>
>>29052294
>If you don't actually use your truck bed
Dumbest argument ever.

When was the last time you had passengers in your back seat?
When was the last time your trunk was packed?
How often do you "use" your spare tire?
What about performance specs? You dont "need" that much horsepower on public streets. A 1966 Volkswagen Beetle had 46hp and was capable of attaining highway speed.
Actually, since 99% of the time you drive alone you should be forced to ride a moped and only be allowed a car if you can prove a "need" for it.
In fact- you dont "need" a moped at all because public transportation is available. The government should only issue a drivers license to those people who can not be serviced by other means.

>>29052913


Why are you even on this board lol
>>
>>29052913
Yeah but cars weigh like 1500 pounds lighter, so me not using all seats isn't going to have a significantly higher chance of killing or maiming someone unlike a truck when that truck driver never uses the bed. I should not have to live in fear on the roads due to reckless truck drivers who know they can get away witha crash because they will "win". Like I said they shouldn't be banned outright but heavily discouraged.

I bet the average truck owner has a small penis. It's not just a meme. Generally they are good daily drivers for people who aren't poor.. It's like a hatchback. Why drive a hatchback when you can rode a scooter? It's just bringing you to your job mostly

I do think it's funny how the Hummer more or less failed because of the stigma it received for being uselessly large and ineffective at everything meanwhile the lifted pickup with extra large wheels, short bed and no hitch attached has flourished.

They did make 4wd versions of these but they're not particularly common. Really the use case is towing heavy stuff, wasting gas, and looking cool.
