America has lost its f*****g mind.
(feddit.de)
Hey, German here. What the f*** are Americans doing at the other side of the Atlantic? Some of you already know this monstrosity. I did'nt. This is a Ford F650 Truck and when I stepped out of my Youtube Bubble I realized, it was marketed as the "biggest, baddest Truck on the road" for the everyday American. Are you guys serious?! Is the end goal really to drive a Monster Truck to McDs to get a McFlurry? Americas bloodiest wars have been fought in the middle east to secure oil, bombing nations to rubble. And all, for this bullshit? The excess, waste and decadence is mind boggling to me and people on Reddit seriously justifying this by "you know dude I'm 6,4ft. I don't fit in any other vehicle" makes me go up the wall.
Our message includes "current day cars are Too Damn Big", and this shit is the perfect example.
It's not, though, because statistically speaking no one is driving it.
The whole point was that this isn't really a day car, except in the minds of non Americans assuming what Americans really drive.
Now of course if they had used an F150, particularly comparing a modern one to what "full size" trucks used to be, fair and accurate point. The standard full size truck including the f150 tries to resemble a big rig a bit too much, just not as insane as the pictured F650 would be if anyone used it as such.
Give it a couple of years
