It’s a pickup truck. And probably not used for anything a truck would be used for. They’re everywhere in America and just as annoying.
I personally don’t see the point in having a vehicle this big unless it’s used for work (hauling materials and towing trailers) And 95% of the time, it’s not.
You and me both. I had a 97 Dodge Dakota Sport, which is barely bigger than my CUV. I miss that thing. I hauler a fridge in it once to help my friend out. Haven’t had a need to haul a fridge since, but still, never know when a truck bed will come in handy lol. I just hate that the smallest size now is enormous. Even “sport” models are what used to be standard size anymore.
My deep dream is a revival of the El Camino but with current or next gen electric motors. Small with a bed for hauling larger items without the issue of fuel efficiency
Lol… I had to ask my gen z kid if he knew what they were… He didn’t so I showed him… Then I asked him, “car or truck”… He says car so that’s the answer from the future of America… 😂
LoL. Still to be fair from the front they very much look like a car and the chassis is probably more car than truck. It’s one of those weird in-between things but I suppose it is still better at carrying a load of whatever than a standard sedan.
I mean the truck bed is like 3 feet long, you can’t do anything with it, it’s never been off-road, and it has two full size rows of seats. It’s an SUV in denial.
That’s not an SUV… But yeah it looks like they backed up ONTO the curb, that’s pretty rude…
Ah my bad, in Europe we don’t see many of these cars. How would you call it? A truck?

Yes that’s a pickup truck.
An abomination against god?

I wish the small commuter truck would come back but it’s a fools dream
The Hyundai Santa Cruz is the closest we have, and they’ve been selling pretty well
Me like. I hope I can get my hands on one of these someday.

Sport/compact trucks these days seem like they’re really the same size, just with rounded off styling so you get less useful space
I have a 2015 Tacoma, which I love. But I would much rather an ‘84 Toyota pickup.

It’s a pickup truck. Often drive by assholes who like them but don’t need them
Oftentypically“Pickup truck”
Yup. If it’s got a bed in the back for transporting stuff, it’s a truck. In this case, a short-box truck.
An SUV is basically like a tall 4-door sedan with hinged doors a hatch-back (if the rear doors are sliding, then it’s a van/mini-van)
So an El Camino is a truck?
An El Camino is a chariot of the gods. It transcends common labels.
Also begs the question, what’s a Subaru brat or Baja then?
Sorta.
The Chevrolet El Camino was a car-based light truck that Chevrolet offered from 1959–'60 and 1964–1987
It was also a train, according to Wikipedia :-)

For sure… Made for a funny discussion all around in my opinion though.
That is a truck or pickup truck or pickup.
SUV does not have a flat bed for cargo.
As the owner of a Subaru Baja, I call it an Ute. The short bed is useful to a point (hauling tanks of flammable fuel, etc) but not perfect.
If it’s not a body on frame vehicle, I wouldn’t call it a truck.
I’d call it worthless. I could fit more in my prius than the bed of that truck.
A pickup truck where I’m from.

I call them SUTs if the bed is shorter than the cab.
Yeah but SUVs go off road. Most “SUV’s” on the road these days are just lifted hatch backs

You might want to read that again. It was clearly a joke.
