A 92% increase of a small number is still small, the number of electric vechicle has seen a far greater increase.
>menacing vehicles
Some people need to get a grip
This is in particular due to a tax dodge which makes them VED free, government tried to close the loophole last year but backed down (as always).
> US style
> Ford Ranger and Toyota Hilux
Yeah, uh, these small trucks are used as wheel chocks by full sized US trucks like the Ford 150, Dodge Ram etc. It’s always the people who have never stepped outside who get their opinions broadcast, isn’t it?
These are better than Tesla’s that fund Elon Musk fascist platform, X.
This article is nonsense. It’s saying that the doubling of US style pickups has doubled and that they now roam our city streets… in reality it’s counting all pickups, and shows no evidence that they’re more present in cities.
What they aren’t saying is that in the last 10 years there’s been an influx of high capability, low cost pick ups like Dacia and D-Max (neither American in manufacturing or style) that make for great utility vehicles, and probably replaced utility SUVs or micro vans. Also completely ignores the fact that SUVs have rebranded in the last 10 years and now cost considerably more.
It’s actually outrageous that someone has been paid real money to write an article about there being 300k more pick ups on the road and has provided zero analysis.
