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.
Yeah, my family currently has R but next year we need to buy an L for most of the reasons listed above. I’m just glad both options are available, it’s always works out better for consumers when there’s more choices depending on your needs.
I think the difference in opinion here though is that you have a small truck but recognize that you do have reasons to upgrade, instead of starting out with one of the monster trucks and not ever really using it to the potential that it has all while creating way more emissions and it being way more dangerous
