    Way too heavy. Not allowed with standard drivers license in civilized countries.

    Yes but American cars don't have some magic suspension that is not available to others. If anything I'd bet that European suspension technology is objectively better as it always has been.

    Listen dude, people are just having beef with your claim that "american trucks are great to drive" which is clearly not everyone's relative experience. I admit that american cars made huge strides in the last couple of decades but they're still mostly a niche meme everywhere else around the world.

    We generally solved ICE cars somehwere in 00's so whatever local variant fits your need is 100% the best choice. I drive a Japanese ICE car from 2010 and recently looked at upgrades and really couldn't find a single reason for an upgrade other than aesthethics.

    Yeah, you are never going to convince lemmings that they have a place. They have a niche and in that niche they are excellent.

    I know a guy who has a industrial flooring business (epoxy coatings, grinding, etc) and he has a big fuckoff american truck. Because he lives in it 9 hours a day and tows around a trailer with ALL his work supplies and still has to pick the kids up from school and take them to sports on the weekends. Its one vehicle, it does it all and most importantly because its signwritten and its his work vehicle its 100% tax deductable.

    Wouldnโ€™t a van work better? No need for a trailer then.

    I don't know what country this is, but in my country he will have to pay 100% tax if he uses the company vehicle for private purposes. The driver will have to keep an auditable km registration.
