Aargh. I sold my pickup! The Chevy I was so proud and happy to drive for the past 25 yrs, the one that reliably saw me thru all the important things in my adult life- good and bad
#memories #sad #PickupTrucks
I'm mourning its absence and my failure to earn enough to fix it up as a performance truck for me to have for the rest of my life
I'm also sad bec while I was selling it, a guy stopped and offered me $2000 more than I was getting from the first gal. I hope it was right to say no to him

"Why are there more SUVs on the road?" [ ± 1min]
by ReasonTV
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/juyhjSUmMh8
Quote by RTV
"2023, Dec 15
Have you ever wondered why there are more crossovers, SUVs and minivans on the road? It’s because they technically meet the government definition of a light truck, which allows automakers to avoid fines for fuel efficiency standards."

De #Ram 1500 is een pickup truck die net iets groter is dan de Panzer I-tanks van nazi-Duitsland, bijna net zo zwaar en steeds populairder, zelfs in Europa. In 2023 werden er 20% meer Rams geregistreerd dan het jaar er voor. Activisten in Europa zijn geschokt, omdat de nieuwste, meest extreme voorbeelden van de #autobloat uit Noord-Amerika – gigantische #pickuptrucks – steeds vaker de Atlantische Oceaan oversteken. https://www.duurzaamnieuws.nl/meer-monstertrucks-in-europa-gevaren-voor-mens-en-klimaat/
The #EU must close the loophole! There also must be a tax on #SUVs even when they're electric.

"Monster-#PickupTrucks erobern Europa: Verkaufszahlen steigen trotz Sicherheitsbedenken.
Ein Dodge Ram 1500 ist größer als ein Kampfpanzer. Solche schweren Trucks sind bei Zusammenstößen 'tödlich'."

We have a few weeks to leave comments on this proposed change, and we need a chorus of public support to make this happen. Tell your friends! https://www.regulations.gov/document/NHTSA-2024-0057-0001

National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to finally put limits on car designs in consideration of #PedestrianSafety.
For the first time vehicle safety oversight group is proposing setting testing and performance requirements on mfgrs of oversize #SUV and Massive #PickUpTrucks to minimize the risks of fatal & prolific life changing pedestrian head injuries.
Some mfgr jacked Ford pickups viewing area over hood begins 55" off ground, where the roofs of most older cars used to be. Dumb design driver #blindspots on trucks oft 11 feet longer than a sedan.

@TallVenti all good points. Detroit has a problem sustaining profitable supersized vehicles when converting them to electric. The batteries required are too big, the cost too high, and nobody wants to pay those high prices. This is a losing value propositiom. #consumerism #ev #supersized #suv #PickupTrucks #ElectricVehicles
People who bike Casa Verde in #Monterey as part of their route: Be extra alert for wide vehicles headed to RV campsites at #MontereyFair and Event Center.
Didn’t get a photo of white Sunset trailer pulled by pickup on Casa Verde 7/28, but have a vivid image of them in mind. What made them special?
After several trucks towing trailers, and other RVs, passed us on our bicycle—each giving us plenty of room—the Sunset one came inches from hitting us. (Seems the driver forgot the trailer they were pulling was wider than their pickup!) As they passed us, we saw that they were the only one that had bicycles on the back of their vehicle! #FunnyNotFunny
