Why do people like driving trucks?
>look at how much I can tow?
How is that shit fun? just get a fast coupe you faggots?

It's the utility and power of a van without the rollover risk, bad visibility and pedo stigma. They are also generally much easier to work on than any other vehicle you can find.

Why do people drive sports cars ? Look how fast I can go !! Lol.
Just get the truck.

>Why do people like driving trucks?
They're big and powerful, can go offroad, haul shit and fucking kill your dumb ass in your sport coupe in a wreck.

>just get a fast coupe you faggots?
Or you can have both like I do, but I mainly DD the truck.
>>
>>17695638
Unless you need it as a fleet vehicle for your job, or you have a boat or something to tow, then there is literally no reason to own a truck other than because you have a small penis.
People buy these retarded huge trucks to compensate. Prove me wrong.

>>17697373
What about hauling loose or unsanitary materials?

As a ratio of what they're capable of and what they're actually used for, privately driven trucks on average are probably the most underutilized egoboosting shitbarges in the world. (Note how I said "on average" and not "in every single case ever".)
>b-but maybe I just like to drive one for no reason,
Then at least have the balls to admit that you don't have an actual use for it. But of course if you had balls you wouldn't drive one for no reason.

I drive a 5.9 dakota do I have a small penis

You can always tow more than you can haul, so if you're in the market for just towing then a Wrangler with a cummings 4bt swap is way more practical. Low 30' mpg hwy and 400+ ftlbs tq.

This I kinda get, if we're talking about matching vans to the typical american domestic market truck, which to me seem to be very much designed to be used only on the road, which makes the tasks where a truck is the absolute best option become a lot fewer

>>17697430
This is also quite correct. Like he says, for a very big part/majority of the market trucks are very underutilized and quite often just ego-boosters. I use my truck very much as a truck, and put it to tasks a van wouldn't be able to due to the terrain, but I know plenty who are afraid to even make a small scrape in their plastic bedliner, or who owns a pickup because of "I need the cargo space", runs it on street-tires and never takes it offroad, and denying their hardest that something like a Toyota HiAce 4WD is a lot cheaper, has about twice as much space, uses less fuel and has an extra seat

Yea on average a lot are under utilized but a good amount of people use them for work so i get that, also i mean its just preference, I think hatch backs look like shit, who cares?

My first ride was an el Camino and I'd still drive it today if I could.

Why would you buy a truck or a van when you could get the ultimate utility vehicle?

please note: this does not apply to any other SUV's
>>
>>17697496
Small truck/big engine is acceptable.
>>
>>17697430
Holy shit, I basically wanted to type this exact thing but you beat me too it.

For private use unless you're towing a boat or ATVs or something like that then you'd really only ever actually use your truck for moving. And how often do you ever actually move? You might get a new washer or dryer or furniture for your house but most places deliver anyway, so you'd probably not use it anyway.

Just admit that you get the truck because it's big and you think that makes you look cool.
>>

>posts car with truck engine

>>17695638
Because I can't fit my engine hoist and the engine I bought for my project car in the back of my 4runner. Sure my little suv is good for small loads but anything really heavy makes it ride like shit and I risk damaging my interior.

This.
Trucks have their needs, but not in the hands of a non-commercial owner that "haul" once every 2-5 years.
Nor is it ecofriendly.

If you don't take your "sports car" to the track every single day or use it's full performance potential constantly, Then you're just compensating. Prove me wrong.

Tuner fags think they're so above trucks. They should look in the mirror sometime, If they can even see up that high.
>>
>>17698246
And they don't drive them all the time either.
A gas guzzling truck is worse than a sports car anyway.
The only reason they drive them is because they don't have as strict inspection, or worse yet, choose to live in a 3+3rd world country/state that don't have yearly inspections so the piece of shit is actually safe to drive.

Still use my car for my long trips and city driving, but not nearly as much as I use to.

The truck is far easier to work on, better gas mileage, and loading is easier than the van.

Kind of wish I bought a truck sooner to be honest. The ability to throw literally anything into the back is amazing.

Clean up is even better. Couple seconds with the broom and I'm done.

The main problem with having a truck imo, is that everyone, friends and family, will come up to you whenever they need help moving anything, it gets kind of annoying after a while doing so much favors.

>>17701636
His loss because the things ruin your fuel economy and road noise. A truck with offroad tires will make a constant drone at highway speed.
