Why do so many Americans hate European trucks?

I agree. I got a 4 door f150. But nothing wrong with the guy that prefers a roomier full sized suv because he doesn't need the pick up bed.

 

I wouldn't actually mind a Suburban to be honest. Just the cost is way too high IMO. Most of them at the dealer are stickered $80-90k. I can almost buy 2 pickups at that price.

 

A proper dash board....

 

How about towing 35000lbs truck? Official numbers says 5500lbs towing capacity

 

That Mercedes minivan you pictured is not towing 5500 lbs on a regular basis. Attempt that and it won't last two years.

 

Good old A model KW. Like that dash way better than the Peterbilts of that era to be honest.

 

Ram 3500 Cummins can tow 30,000 lbs

 

A one ton is overkill for me. I need to tow and launch a fishing boat, not a cruise ship.

 

Same here. My half ton does everything I need. Anything bigger and my KW can take care of it lol.

 

I have not tried, dont know but mercedes always take numbers safe
Dont see reason how suv could last longer? Unless you are talking about serious offroad things like landcruiser g klasse or similar with serious driveline snd chassis

Edit van itself is 7000lbs rated
