Comparison left vs right for a craftsman who doesnt know which one he should buy:

  • l/r same bed size

  • r lower bed for way easier loading/unloading

  • r less likely to crash

  • r less fuel consumption and costs

  • r less expensive to repair

  • r easy to park

  • r easy to get around in narrow places like crowded construction sites or towns

  • r not participating in road arms race

  • l You get taken serious by your fellow carbrained americans because ““trucks”” are normalized and small handy cars are ridiculed.

So unless you are a fragile piece of human, choose the right one.

      You can legally put a front facing car seat in the front of there is no backseat. Rear facing you are SOL.

      Aren’t switchable passenger airings still a thing? I know I saw them on Chevy 1500s 20 years ago.

        My 2016 Subaru has automatic switching: I assume that’s common now. If the seat has less than 50 lbs, the airbag is off.

        That being said, I wouldn’t trust it, since it seems a bit inconsistent, plus would worry car seats are too close in weight
