For me, it may be that the toilet paper roll needs to have the open end away from the wall. I don't want to reach under the roll to take a piece! That's ludicrous!

That or my recent addiction to correcting people when they use "less" when they should use "fewer"

Large american pickup trucks shouldnt even need to exist. You could get almost the same bed space with a kei truck (which granted is not easy to import or get but still)

    BuT i ToW (once every 3 years)

    Isnt it a Chevy pulling a jet in the old ad making the rounds? I'm sure that Chevy would be fucked after doing THAT a few times but it would handle your stupid uhaul sized trailer just fine.

    There are certain large vehicles that are still needed but the F150 (and similar) shouldn't be in every fucking driveway Trucks are purpose built vehicles.

    I own a brewery and the number of people that drive 30-40 min in a truck to pick up a 50L keg is insane. I have a Veloster and can put 5 full kegs in it...

    They probably wouldn't exist if it weren't for the unintended consequences of regulation

    Actually it's a lack of regulations that is the problem. Light trucks are less regulated so the big manufacturers leaned hard into it.

    Regulations need to be updated
