If I had to regularly tow a midsized excavator on a large gooseneck trailer, this size of truck would be a reasonable - if moderately excessive - option.

Otherwise, outside of “let’s haul some large earthmoving equipment” use cases, it is stupid to own a truck like this.

American here. Calm down, it's a specialized vehicle that costs more than a hundred thousand dollars with an engine designed to tow extremely heavy industrial products for non-commercial use outside of what typical truck manufacturers sell for typical industrial shipping such as semi-trucks.

No, fucker, nobody is going to buy that and drive to McDonalds, you are delusional that Cleetus can afford that thing.

I saw this thing on Cribs once. T-Pain had it. Fucking hood of the car was a good foot over his fucking head. It's literally a semi-trailer cab.

6'4'' don't fit in anything else

My fucking ass. I'm 6'6'' and the only vehicle I've ever not actually been able to fit in was a Jeep Wrangler.

Overcompensating for a lack of everything but money.

See, the difference between this lemmy fuckcars, and the subreddit, is that, on the subreddit, I would get plenty of people who fell for the bait completely. On this lemmy, most of the top posts are people specifically refuting the bait. Of course, this does nothing to disincentivize the behavior, and increases the engagement of the post, compared to other, better posts, but it's still nice that the userbase could recognize the problems with this rather than just kind of buying in mindlessly because it seemed to agree with their political in group.

German here

A German complaining about American wars?

think about how much you hate it, then multiply that by having to live in the same country as 'em.

I have def seen this shit all over the midwest and central washington.
