reasons new pickup trucks suck:
- the beds are at best no bigger, and often smaller, than older models
- heavier = less efficient
- higher bumpers make them less compatible with most other vehicles, therefore more dangerous in a collision
- higher tailgates make them harder to load
- higher hoods give them an enormous blindspot in the front
- higher center of gravity makes them less stable
- higher seats give the driver a worse view of their immediate surroundings
- higher bumpers also make them more likely to collide with a pedestrian's chest as opposed to their legs, as well as making the victims more likely to go under the car, leading to more deaths
oh also market research suggests people who buy trucks and SUVs are more likely to be assholes lmao
basically, watch this video if you need more reasons to hate trucks:
