This happened in Toronto on October 24th
I’m close to 2m tall, and the hoods of the trucks I walk by on my way to work are up to my shoulders, I think things like size aren’t really helping. Naturally, maybe 1 of every 10 trucks this size appear to actually be for work.
I think a lot of the modern safety improvements are great, but just making every vehicle gigantic is doing a lot of harm.
Agreed. And having automated controls for breaking would be a magnificent leap forward. Unless the government steps in to slow down those products there isn’t anything to be done.
You can see reform starting in the form of the “Carolina squat” being outlawed in a lot of states to help alleviate some of that pain.
I already think that stock F450s and Ram 3500s shouldn’t be road legal, let alone the ones around here with “normal” lift kits.
I’ve never seen a truck with a proud stance like that, that’s disgusting.
So I’m on the Eastern Eastern shore and most of the 3500s, and the f350/f450s are work trucks. They’re always hauling shit. But I’m bias because I only commute and don’t really go out and about.
Now the ones that I see that are a problem are the new Silverados /Tahoe/suburban and the F150-F250 line up. And especially the older ones that the kids crank up on stilts. Goofy looking trucks.
