Just look at the prices of them! Crazy. A Dodge Ram was usually a little cheaper than Ford or Chevy.
You mean inline 6, you know, like Cummins uses. The inherent balance of an inline 6 actually lends itself well to a truck application.
I guess the counter would be, how has that worked out for Ford with the EcoBoost? I'd say, in general, pretty good (which, is of course a black eye for Toyota, lol).
With regards to trucks, I dislike the proliferation of big cars everywhere on American roads. I don’t appreciate knowing that I am at a safety disadvantage because I’m not willing to DD a thirsty SUV or massive truck. That being said, I hate even worse a government that would mandate people driving small cars, so I say go ahead and drive whatever you want. I simply wished there was a cultural shift away from the vast majority of people driving big trucks and obese SUVs. Don’t take this personal, because you are not the vast majority.
Did you even read the rest of my post? Did you only read the first two sentences and write your response?
And instead of being hyperbolic, I’ll give you a clear image of what I wish for on American roads.
Ok, well it’s hard to interpret your tone. I wrote that people should be able to drive whatever they want, I only said a cultural shift would be better, and you responded that I should be upset at semi’s, sport cars drivers and go after basically everything else, including cyclists. I want moderation. What you’re citing is not moderation. That’s extreme opposites, which is not helpful at all. This happens a lot.
Only works if everyone does it, which will never happen.
Which is I am surprised you responded the way you did. I made it clear people should be free to choose whatever they want because I also don’t want less freedom at the expense of safety. But the best use of freedom is the considerate use of it. Sometimes people use freedom as an excuse to be rude to their neighbors.
