Well, that guy is clearly a massive prick, but let’s also talk about how fucking ugly that truck is. I don’t know when everyone decided that land yacht pickup trucks were the bees knees, but they’re not. They’re just dumb and so. goddamn. ugly.
For real dude, there’s no decent sized mid sized pickups anymore. I drove my '99 dodge Dakota forever and loved the size! It even had a V8 compared to most of the newer land yachts with 4 bangers and v6s.
I don’t need a block on wheels, I just need a smaller pickup because I camp and haul shit enough to justify needing one vs a car or suv.
Last I’d checked, it was virtually impossible to import non-DOT-approved cars to the US. You basically had to take them apart and then assemble them here as “kit cars” to get around stupid grey market rules.
Just check the bed. If there’s a liner, chances are the truck is needed. If it’s clean, it’s a vanity truck.
I own a 350 and am very aware of just how big this truck is. But I do need the pulling power for work related things. I’ve also used it to help people that have broken down.
I haven’t seen a new truck without a bed liner in decades.
Plenty of 'em out there homie. I bought a used DMax in 2019 and despite being a Denali edition it didn’t come with a bedliner, just a rubber mat for the floor. I should have had one sprayed in when I got the truck because my box is now beat to shit.
I think all the previous owner did with it was tow a horse trailer.
My DMax is a pretty truck but the beat to crap box, without bedliner, is under a tonneau cover so you can’t see it. Another thing you can do is check the receiver hitch, if it’s scratched / rusty inside then you know its being used to tow something. 🙂

You mean their Emotiional Support Truck.

Also partly responsible for an increase in pedestrian fatalities.

Buy an Aussie import ute. They’re exactly what you want and not common in the US so you have a fashion statement.

You can either bring in a 25 year old one, or rebody a local Chevy SS or Pontiac G8 with a ute shell.
I know; it’s so easy it’s a wonder we don’t see more of them!
There is a lot of anger, frustration, and unacknowledged insecurity going into vehicle purchases in the US.
I agree. The amount of unrequited hate is disturbing.

I haven’t seen a new truck without a bed liner in decades. I apparently thought they were standard equipment.
If you need one, you need one, but I’m confident that a tiny percentage of these things are used for actual work. Also: still ugly. Sorry.
