How’s that different from driving a car roughly the same size?

Just noting as a reference these trucks are 11ft long, a Miata is roughly 20% longer at 13ft.

Doing comparisons like these don’t make sense when motorcycles and trikes exist.

I didn’t really intend for it to be a comparison or supporting the narrative these trucks are ‘too small for America’, I just find many people hear small truck and imagine “like a ford ranger but a little less”, as their starting reference point. Gotta go smaller, scale is tough.

Just for reference a Fiat 500 is roughly 9.75 feet long.

Maybe in the 70s, a modern 500 is listed at 11.6 ft
