      Maybe sometimes, but it’s also just a massively more capable vehicle. Sometimes the simplest answer is the truth.

        It’s really not.

        It’s about getting past emission standards and pandering to people who don’t understand enough is enough.

        They’re also hazards as the increased hood length and height create massive blind spots that have caused a rise in collisions and deaths.

          I think both are true. The truck on the right is super capable, and also dangerous, inefficient, unnecessary for most people.
