Not enough space for a stroller, had to walk in the middle of the street to go around the SUV.

      It’s a pickup truck. And probably not used for anything a truck would be used for. They’re everywhere in America and just as annoying.

      I personally don’t see the point in having a vehicle this big unless it’s used for work (hauling materials and towing trailers) And 95% of the time, it’s not.

          You and me both. I had a 97 Dodge Dakota Sport, which is barely bigger than my CUV. I miss that thing. I hauler a fridge in it once to help my friend out. Haven’t had a need to haul a fridge since, but still, never know when a truck bed will come in handy lol. I just hate that the smallest size now is enormous. Even “sport” models are what used to be standard size anymore.

            Sport/compact trucks these days seem like they’re really the same size, just with rounded off styling so you get less useful space

      As the owner of a Subaru Baja, I call it an Ute. The short bed is useful to a point (hauling tanks of flammable fuel, etc) but not perfect.

      If it’s not a body on frame vehicle, I wouldn’t call it a truck.
