My favorite vehicle I've ever owned was a 4 cylinder manual gen 1 Tacoma.
A 2010 Chrysler minivan is a superior work vehicle to modern pickup trucks in every meaningful way.
If you have a pickup with a 4 ft bed, you have an suv somebody took the back row of seats out-of, chopped the roof off of, and sold to somebody who was to insecure to drive a vehicle that didn't reassure them they're a big strong manly man.
America won't allow Japanese light duty pickup trucks to be imported because it would kill 3 separate inferior markets.
Fully agree. I think most modern trucks are a minivan but without an enclosed hatch. They're just incompatible. If you want a truck you want bedspace for hauling, it's not supposed to be a driving the family around vehicle. That's a van, or in the 70s terms that's a stationwagon. They're two completely separate vehicles.
Instead people are paying over 70k for a vehicle that does both of those things poorly.
