This is not out in some rural town. This is in Portland, OR about 2 miles from downtown. Personal vehicles this large are simply incompatible with urban living and pressure their owners to continually break traffic law. Technically that Miata is parked as close to the stop sign as it can legally be, but as the Denali doesn’t fit in many places around here it’s owner is compelled to park across both the stop sign and the crosswalk.
You just spat in the face of 90% of full size truck owners, and I’m here for it. Well done good sir/ma’am. Carry on.
I have a F150 for work. Today I towed my 10K trailer for two loads with 4,750lbs and 6,500ln on it. I also drove offroad for around 20 miles. I would love to drive a smaller vehicle. I got the smallest vehicle that I could find the job. It’s stock on everything except for some all terrain tires. I still hop in my wife’s car to drive around town.
My neighbor has a truck like the one above. He got groceries in it today. He’s an pharmacist.
Your neighbor has fantasies about cowboy hats and wheat fields. You use your 1/2 ton properly.
