    Agreed lol.

    Its not literally the smallest pickup truck on American roads, a few people still have older, smaller models from the 80s or whatever…

    …but far larger trucks than in this image are absolutely everywhere.

    And I say this as someone who used to drive a hatchback and routinely laugh at all the moron truck drivers who spend an hour trying to figure out where to park their F350 duallies in a dense downtown part of American city, baffled by the idea that the urban core doesn’t have Walmart sized parking lots every block.

    These literal tank sized trucks are the smallest modern variants of American trucks. The larger ones are incredibly common and even larger than these.

    Here’s a quick example:

    The white truck in this image is roughly the same size as the trucks in the tank/truck comparison and the article’s image, the black truck behind it is closer to what more and more Americans drive, and many drive ones that are even larger than that.
