It's been my experience that F-150 owners are arrogant, southern-fried buttholes, but anyone who owns a Cybertruck is probably worse, just by merit of being associated with Elon Musk.

Because "real work" trucks have 4 doors and a short bed, right?

“‘I’ make trucks”

Yeah, sure lmao

He's not really wrong. A Ford pickup can be beat to hell, and u can source just about any part on the truck within a 20 minute drive. When your pay relies on your transportation and hauling, time is money. A truck made of a giant piece of sheetmetal and something that needs to go back to Tesla for any issue won't cut it.

I sure hope any of these inexpensive minitruck brands, especially all-electric ones, crack into the US market at some point.

Such ridiculousness, the arms race of ever-bigger "light" trucks that have double cabs and short beds. I cannot understand why any tradie would get a pickup over a van with a roof rack.

I hate how normal large vehicles like trucks and SUVs have become here in the US. Especially because 90% of people who buy them don't actually need them. I see so many big stupid vehicles all over the place with a single person just going to the grocery store.

Yeah I mean 90% of the time, you’re not doing that. Because no shit.

So don't buy a truck? Admit it, it's just compensating for your insecurities. You do not need a truck. Just rent one for the 2 times a year you might maybe need one, then you can stop driving up prices for people who actually need one.

I'm really annoyed that status seekers like you are providing such an overwhelming market incentive that Ford doesn't even have a 2-door electric truck on the market. They're all 4-door because it's 99% familes who want an SUV, but more manly looking.

I hate Tesla now but that is a shit comment. It’s like when people say “real America” is in the farm as if people in cities - where most Americans live - are worthless.

It's crazy that I live in a world where I'm rooting for Ford, of all things.

The Ford Maverick is actually a step in the right direction though. It's got a bed and it's relatively affordable. A lot of small contractors don't need giant jacked up V8s.

I still can't believe they're trying to make this fucking abomination Elon shit out in 2 seconds in Blender after he couldn't open Solidworks.

Very few newer full size trucks ever get used for "real" work..... Because they're so freaking expensive. Sure, some do, but that would be the big contractors who have a fleet of work trucks and so on. Regular guys will beat on the 15 year old stuff. Because they can afford to fix it if they have to.

And for people who do no work but want to waste space in your local city

Wow, didn’t know the ceo is making all those trucks by himself!

If we're being real, neither truck is for people who do real work.

When it's 40 below out and your truck needs to go all day because you're at a work site and it's the only place to warm up in between getting some critical piece of equipment back up and running, a battery that's so dead it needs a 600V charger for a few hours just to get home isn't going to cut it.

Ford Trucks are for "real people who do real work"
Most popular car in America is the F-150 and mostly used to carry three grocery bags at most

Classic Ford.
