How come?

>badass truck asserting dominance
>tiny cuckmobile submissively tucking itself into the corner
yeah that's about how it goes

>>28668622
The new generation of truck owners. Always leaves more than one car space behind a car at a stop light too. They don't know how to drive them.

>>28668633
We have literal gotcattle here with us.

>>28668308 (OP)
I think the gayest thing about these kinds of shitbox oversized utes is the knowledge that they're all automatic.

Cuckover drivers are even worse

>>28668308 (OP)
I hate vermont and hondas, fuck you op

>>28668367
I really hate when faggots park over the fucking sidewalk like this, it isn't a part of the damn parking space.

>>28668367
Nice Tercel.

>Numerous studies have found that SUVs and trucks are more deadly to vulnerable road users (VRUs) in almost any crash: they are at least 50 percent more likely to kill, according to a comprehensive review of studies from 2010 published in the journal Traffic Injury Prevention.
>Light trucks make up an ever larger share of vehicles on our roads. But their deadliness is attributable to more than their increasing numbers. The problem, researchers say, is also rooted in their size and shape, and how that changes the dynamics of crashes in vital ways.
>Crashes with SUVs do more damage. A 2005 study from the Association for the Advancement of Automotive Medicine’s annual journal found that severe torso injuries are 98 percent more likely to occur in a crash with a vehicle in the light-truck category. After head trauma, injuries to the torso are the second-leading cause of death in VRU collisions.
>When a car strikes a cyclist, the initial impact causes severe lower-body trauma, but it’s also likely to sweep that person’s legs out from underneath them. This is significant, because as the rider slides up the hood, they’re scrubbing speed and, with it, some impact force. An SUV or truck, by contrast, is taller, so the initial impact is likely to target the pelvis or even the chest. “That momentum is carried through your body,” says Hu. In addition, the front-end shape of a vehicle is vital.

God damn trucks are fucking based

Let's see those fuel prices

>>28668308 (OP)
I’m jelly of your EG hatch. Used to have a sedan and it was my second favorite car after the Integra I had after it.

>>28673030
That's based and it's the city's fault for putting a parking lot and a rail line in the middle of the fucking road.
Roads are for driving. Roads are not parking lots, roads are not footpaths, roads are not bike parks, roads are not railways.
When you combine 3 or more kinds of traffic into one area you better expect problems and then count yourself lucky if none of those problems are lethal.

>>28668308 (OP)
I love trucks so much it's unreal. I admire them all, with their utility and durability. If I wasn't poor I'd buy one, probably a Tacoma or Colorado. In the meantime I configure them online and watch YT reviews and POV rides with headphones on.

>automatic transmissions have more hydraulic advantage and stability than the manual
Idk dude take it up with the engineers.

>>28674060
You can push start a manual and losing a gear in your transmission doesn't stop you from driving home or to the mechanic to make repairs.

>muh utility
truggmaker meme
picrel ('98) towed 5070 pounds when the '98 F-150 towed 5750. Comparing to RWD F-150, as pic is RWD. Both braked towing capacity.
Zog wants you buying bloated goymobiles for $$$ when an affordable car is good at car things and still capable

It’s pretty much this meme to a T

>>28674107
>if you put an expensive and retardedly gigantic supercharger that blocks line of sight on your car you can tow stuff, so you don't need a truck!
nigger IQ, fitting seeing as a nigger is driving it.

>>28674119
retard those figures are stock
pic is just somebody fooling around with a 4 L natty engine that can handle a ton of boost

>>28674128
>is just somebody
is just a nigger*
nothing you say is of any value if you self-censor in defiance of basic biological facts.

>>28674157
Shut the fuck up faggot, you lower your head in fear IRL. For fuck's sake.

>>28674176
No I don't, I don't even live near niggers.

>>28668308 (OP)
Cringe. Trucks are awesome and (you) are a fag

>>28668308 (OP)
Every car except the hatchback and the truck is a cuckover. Can't make this shit up.

>>28673314
I'm sure glad I'm not an anti-truck r/fuckcars redditor lmao, imagine being this butthurt seeing a superior vehicle on the road

>>28674933
imagine how I feel that I have to agree with r/fuckcars redditors on something
build huge V8 sedans, not bloated trucks. At least the redditors hate me for this.

>>28668921
>I’ve never had to tow anything or drive slowly off road (and I don’t mean gravel road) in a manual.

It’s a real pain in the ass, I’ll tell you that for free.

>>28674974
>no bed
>low clearance
>2wd
Sounds like a waste, anon

>>28674979
This desu

Experienced offroaders often know how to drive manual, but will recommend automatic for a Jeep

>>28674984
they're cooler
90% of trucks are never even used as trucks more than once a year

also, Australia made this. It tows 5070 pounds. Same year's RWD F-150 towed 5750. (comparing to 1998 RWD because the car is RWD)
handles way better than a truck and this one had an LSD stock, no mods needed for a drift missile

>>28674997
The F150 rating is without a braked trailer. The Falcon can only do 1650lbs without a trailer brakes. But surely you're not intentionally being disingenuous, right?

>>28674997
The F150 can tow over 7k pounds.

>>28675000
yeah it's law in Australia that without trailer brakes, ANY vehicle is limited to 750 kg (including the biggest 2025 model F-150s)
https://www.carsguide.com.au/ford/f150/towing-capacity
here's the aussie tow ratings for imported F-150s. Not sure why they don't have data for 1993-2022.

>>28675014
>>28675015
depends which trim, see table
*link is aussie data, not table. the table is yankee

>>28675021
>comparing to the lowest trim F150
>still no bed and low clearance
Hard sell. I'll keep my Rams.

>>28675025
it's like a 79 year old placing 8th out of 10 in a professional marathon
just him being comparable is a mockery

p.s. technically i was comparing the base model Falcon too. The higher model has a 5.0 V8 and the exact same towing capacity because it's a sports version

>>28674984
Those are all problems that only bother the help.

>>28668308 (OP)
Both of those vehicles are good

>>28675040
Don't compare Euro tow ratings to American tow ratings, retard.

>>28676671
Then look at the Aussie tow rating for the F-150, which I linked.
Link again:
https://www.carsguide.com.au/ford/f150/towing-capacity
Only quoted American also because this website doesn't break it down by trim to the same level of detail

>>28668308 (OP)
Truck = you can also own a racecar fyi

>>28676704
The tow ratings of the truck are irrelevant. Your ElCamino things or your rebadged Pontiac G8's would have a 1000lb or less tow rating in America. In America we don't tow heavy shit with cars because it's fucking dumb.

>>28676711
Yep. So dumb that it works fine in Australia.

>>28676720
Do you tow with the proper amount if tongue weight? Do you tow at 80+mph? Do you tow up and over high altitude mountain ranges? Euros don't do any of that which is why they can get away with those tow ratings on cars. That shit would not work in America.

>>28676723
>euros

>>28676730
This thread is literal proof that Australia is just Hot-Europe. You tow the same, you think the same, the government controls you the same.

>>28676733
Euros need to learn from us about big natty engines. They think 2.2 L is big.

I love compact truggs

>>28668787
Not surprising given how shit near forward visibility must be.

>>28676736

why ? Majority non european big engines produce heat and nose not horsepower . If turbocharged 2.0L can do the same why even bother .

>>28677025
Visibility is fine? Not really any worse than old ones of similar class.

>>28674119
Europeans tow stuff with hatchbacks all the time. Americans are just insecure manbabies with no foreskin.

>>28677049
Vastly different

Whenever I see these silly Hot Wheels trucks parked like this I park my shitty Grand Prix as close to the driver's side door as possible so they can't get in without getting some of my paint on their door.

>>28677051
How so? It's a car towing a travel trailer. I know Americans like to have a second house to lug along when they go "camping" but do you really want to blow hundreds of dollars on fuel every month just to tow a trailer a couple times a year?

>>28673314
garbage city full of trash people
>t. Rotterdammer

>>28677058
Those are ultralights with the wheels far forward to keep tongue weight low for those cars. Is things aren’t loaded correctly or if you go to fast things get out of hand, that’s why most countries over there do like 50mph limits when doing it. Also your geography is a lot kinder to this kind of stuff where we are expected to handle weight going. 80 mph up and down grade for miles.

>>28677049
Seems to be going well.

>>28673030
This is a perfect illustration of how antisocial the people who buy these oversized prosthetic penises are. They only work in America because Americans are an antisocial people and the place is built for them.

>>28677061
As if most of America isn't flat. Sure, America has mountains, but so does Europe. Between Appalachia and the Rockies it's nothing but cornfields.

Anyway, the point is more that it's unnecessary and wasteful to drive a giant gas-guzzling monstrosity just to tow a trailer once or twice a year. Europeans have proven that you don't need a Dodge Ram and a prefab building to park on a patch of grass and sit around in plastic chairs eating hot dogs and Doritos.

>>28673030
the white merc is a nice touch

>>28677071
If a couple hundred dollars a year is the deciding factor you should probably look into doing better.

>>28677120
hey, no bully
maybe he's got an expensive crack addiction or something

>>28677120
More like couple hundred dollars a month lol, the other day my neighbor was complaining that he spends $300 a month on gas for his F150.

>>28677049
A slight incline defeats this.

>>28677071
>Europeans have proven that you don't need a Dodge Ram and a prefab building to park on a patch of grass and sit around in plastic chairs eating hot dogs and Doritos.
If I wanted to be a European I'd sell my shit and move there. They can keep on being faggots if they want I don't care. Gonna keep my whole fleet of gas guzzling pickups and large tracts of land and huge buildings and shoot my guns to my hearts content.
