America has lost its f*****g mind.
(feddit.de)
Hey, German here. What the f*** are Americans doing at the other side of the Atlantic? Some of you already know this monstrosity. I did'nt. This is a Ford F650 Truck and when I stepped out of my Youtube Bubble I realized, it was marketed as the "biggest, baddest Truck on the road" for the everyday American. Are you guys serious?! Is the end goal really to drive a Monster Truck to McDs to get a McFlurry? Americas bloodiest wars have been fought in the middle east to secure oil, bombing nations to rubble. And all, for this bullshit? The excess, waste and decadence is mind boggling to me and people on Reddit seriously justifying this by "you know dude I'm 6,4ft. I don't fit in any other vehicle" makes me go up the wall.
My dude, the top 5 cars sold on the USA are Ford trucks, Silverados and RAMs. They might not look like much to you but in any other country those things are humongous. The RAM trucks are an abomination that should never be on regular people's hands, and even a F250 is gigantic if you compare to a regular sedan like a Civic.
They might not look like much, because they aren't. The trucks you mention are vastly different than the one pictured. Also, "shouldn't be on regular people's hands" doesn't even make sense. The regulating body that ensures the proper training has given me a license stating that I have the ability to drive a truck. I'm a regular person. What are you even trying to get at here?
Nah they're not actually all that big if you take into account what they're designed to do. Maybe even a lil small. How do you expect to load pallets of construction materials in anything smaller? That is, after all, it's intended use. Complain about SUV sizes because those definitely don't have to be so big, but trucks are that size for good reason. People using them as commuters? That's not the truck's fault. Blame the soldier not the gun. Blame the craftsman not the tool. Etc.
