Absolutely. Had to drive pickups at work and was constantly competing to get the old, beat up, smaller truck because it was just so much more practical to load and unload.

The target market here is so sensitive about their masculinity that they’ve actually sabotaged the practical use of these vehicles.

As another guy who drives pickups at work. I hate them as well. They have shit visibility, are difficult to park, handle like a tank, and the bed is difficult to get in and out of.

They design them now as toys, not work vehicles.

Fortnine has an excellent video about this issue.

And it's lifted so they can pick up those sheets of plywood at that Home Depot that is on top of a rocky mountain with no road to it.

Big truck makes me feel like smol girl >:(

Hmm my first thought is that it might be the owner's truck.

The website is really top notch, too.
Between the truck and the yard, I wouldn't call them for any job.
As others have pointed out, that's no work truck, and that yard is bleak.

Why would you assume it’s their yard? More than likely they are visiting a client, there doesn’t look to be street parking, and some people don’t want you parking on their driveway.

This really looks like a contractor trying to fit off the street and driveway and managing the best they can to meet a potential client.

Probably is there too but good luck getting anyone to fine them for it

I agree a truck might be useful to a contractor, but not that truck. It's lifted to an unusable height, and those rims are all flash, no function.

I think a significant part of this problem is that, from what we can see in the photo, they 100% should have pulled forward so that they didn't entirely block the sidewalk. Someone coming through there on a wheelchair or with a stroller would have a real bad time. It also looks like it's out in the road a little, which is very inconsiderate as well.

People moving gravel and sod aren't driving lifted trucks. The lift makes the bed higher and significantly harder to load and unload.

It looks like a show truck to me. A real landscaper’s truck is FILTHY and beat up all to hell because it gets used to do actual work.

This looks like the truck the guy who drives around giving estimates drives.

That is a pickup truck that will never pick up and haul anything.

They would not be using that truck for starters...

There's no way this truck has ever carried bulk gravel or dirt in its box, or anything that would have scratched the paint.

I assume they dont need to park on the walkway for their job
