Comparison left vs right for a craftsman who doesnt know which one he should buy:

  • l/r same bed size

  • r lower bed for way easier loading/unloading

  • r less likely to crash

  • r less fuel consumption and costs

  • r less expensive to repair

  • r easy to park

  • r easy to get around in narrow places like crowded construction sites or towns

  • r not participating in road arms race

  • l You get taken serious by your fellow carbrained americans because ""trucks"" are normalized and small handy cars are ridiculed.

So unless you are a fragile piece of human, choose the right one.

No, I can’t. I can haul more than 35k lbs with my truck, what’s the max for the one on the right? I doubt you’d be able to fit a pallet, let alone the 3 the bed of my truck can hold. I can pull a semi with my truck, can the one on the right do the same? What about a 5th wheel?

There are very valid reasons to own the truck on the left. And more often than not, if you’re going to spend $90k on a truck, it’s because it’s needed.
