It's wild to remember this joke was from 1998, yet I can swear trucks have gotten even bigger since then. I remember most pickup trucks having a compromise between cab space and bed space. My brother's first truck had two seats in the front and two side seats squished behind it - that is, it was such a small space that the seats faced inwards from the wall and we had to fold our legs so our knees went up. It was actually pretty fun to sit back there, I had a friend who'd ask him specifically to drive us places because she loved that feature.
But nowadays it seems most pickup trucks (that I see, in the US) gave up on making that compromise, like the truck in the post image. Full cab in front like it's trying to be a family sedan, then a long-ass bed that makes the thing stick out pretty much anywhere it parks.
I'd say "pick a lane," but with the size of these things, I don't have high hopes.
I had a Chevy s-10 back from those days that could pull those large trucks out the mud. It also had a single “bitch seat” in the back (not a comment on women at all. Just If you’re in that seat.. you’re the little bitch of the group)
I don’t hate people who have trucks. You need it for work… and even large trucks maybe you need it out on the farm and it’s not your fault they keep getting bigger. You still need a truck for work and that’s just the way they come now.
If I see a CLEAN truck that large I’m pissed. That’s a vanity truck. A vanity truck that’s fucking with my sidewalk room.
I miss my old four cylinder Tacoma sometimes but my mini van is so much more practical. I have a trailer and hitch when I need to haul something I don’t want in the van. I looked at Tacomas again a few years ago and was floored at how big they were, I swear they are the size the full size tundras used to be.
A while back, i watched my friend help another friends mom into his truck in an icy parking lot- by using the Tommy gate as an elevator to get her the 2.5' up to the other trucks door.
TBF, at least both actually use their trucks for work. Tommy gate is a stone mason and thw other guy I regularly see hauling trees to plant for landscaping.
