"Who are the CHEFS?" Is a good example of getting caught up in the design elements and missing the essentials.

Found this on the back of a best-selling book: Yes that's a placeholder that tells you to please buy the font if you intend to use it commercially. Since it's a book written by a Nazi shithead it was my pleasure to contact zetafonts about it!

Wow. That went under fast. I just saw a meme yesterday that I think was intended to be praising trucks but it was two of some model of maybe Ford truck, same color, same model, 30 years apart, and the new one is literally twice the size. Big trucks are really stupid. edit: chevy

Pennywise the Frown posted:Wow. That went under fast. My dad has something on par with the newer one, and man, I think the back seat is bigger and roomier than any seat I've used in a van or SUV. He actually gets some use out of the truck hauling and towing stuff, so it's not a complete waste, but it really does feel way too big overall. I tried driving it once and it felt like a bus, that was no fun.

I just love that the last one has the same bed length as the one before but pads out the thickness of the gate to make it look bigger

I wish they'd bring back those old small toyota and nissan pickups, those things were great and they ran for loving ever. My first car was my grandpa's 1988 GMC S-15. It had an extended cab, which meant it had two fold out jumpseats you could uncomfortably cram yourself into behind the two front bucket seats.

This seems like a bit of a bullshit comparison though, since the newer ones go from extended cab to full-on crew cab which obviously will eat up bed space in exchange for having interior storage or a full rear seat. You can still buy a single cab version and get more bed space. Probably still less than the oldest one honestly, but it's still not going to be as dramatic of a reduction as depicted here.

Look if you're driving a pickup and you aren't a third world insurgent you're just LARPing. "boohoo I need my truck for hauling large beams of steel woe is me" get back to me when you've strapped a machine gun to the back and are driving 15 of your best buddies to your collective deaths as you try and strike a blow against the empire.
