Oh you mean those 4 door vans that are passed off as a truck? Yeah no one should get those, they can't even tow all that well and what can you even use a 4 foot bed for? These are likely the same people that think you should get a $130k 5th wheel that is 32 feet long.

I mean this kind of mentality serves me well in Kerbal, but..

I find it very strange that Americans consider 'trucks' and 'cars' to be two separate things. Trucks are cars.

You are completely correct I was essentially trying to move along the conversation from the last post.

That thread was specifically telling craftspeople that they could do their jobs with the little Kei truck rather than a larger one.

If you use your truck for actual work, you want it to be able to do the job. The Kei truck cannot do the same job as the big truck.

It was a stupid comparison. It's like telling someone that they don't need a bucket truck to work on overhead lines or do tree trimming, they can just use a ladder hauled around in a Kei truck. See? Stupid as fuck.

No, the correct post to make would have been to point out the obvious fact that 95% of those huge trucks sold are not used for any sort of work at all, they're just expensive and obnoxious fashion statements.

Is yours a geared cycle? I'm pretty sure a cycle frame can carry ~150 kg, but the brakes and your legs might have issues. Like I can carry a 60 kg friend on my (ungeared) cycle on flat roads. But going uphill would definitely be hard, and downhill might be dangerous.
