    It’s good as a shop truck sure. But most American CARS have double the payload weight of a kei.

    They have a place, but what I was responding to was nonsense. Pickup trucks are a necessity for tons of work. A lot of crews doing different work haul trailers full of their tools and material.

      so what’s so magical about the US that people need pickups there but not in the rest of the world? If you need to haul tools you have a van, which can carry a vastly larger volume without getting things wet.

        I’m not going to sit here and argue workforce necessities with you.

        Your statement was false, that’s it. Pickup trucks are an immutable necessity for the vast majority of workers in America.

        Cope harder.
