Honestly this is absurd. These death machines shouldn’t be legal in europe. That thing doesn’t even fit in the parking space, even though the parking lot has the biggest spaces in the whole city. The Golf Polo is so small in comparison, it could even hide in front of the engine hood of the truck.

EDIT: It’s a Polo and not a Golf, I don’t know my cars, sorry for that!

      Might just be my experience but in the UK at least, it’s almost exclusively women who drive cars like this. Men more commonly drive vans and super large vehicles to be fair, but specifically larger than necessary, non-tradesman style cars (Land Rovers, very clean, empty pick-ups etc.)

      God forbid somebody drives a pickup truck. There’s never ever a necessity to haul anything weighing over 500kg or to ever pull a large trailer. It’s safe to assume anybody driving one of these big scary machines is a sadist with a micropenis and a threat to society.

      Do you realize that whoever grew the food you ate today likely owns and utilizes a pickup truck? Do you realize that your convenient city life would be impossible without rural people transporting goods to your little concrete paradise?

        That’s funny. This might shock you but I don’t actually live in a concrete paradise. I live in a rural area in Europe in a small village with a lot of farms. Take a guess how many pickup trucks there are here? Close to none. That’s because nobody actually needs a pick-up truck.
