If you wear a kilt you can still have a belt
Do people really get into trucks with hard hats on?
Every day.
Why not use a regular pickup truck for the smaller amounts? They have them for rent at every Home Depot. I’ve never understood keeping a toy pickup around to haul some bags of mulch, minivan does the same thing.
The Taco can’t carry 4ft wide goods between the wheel wells, that SD can. Bed length is about the same on these two trucks (too small). The 5ft beds were for toys on mini trucks and they haven’t changed any. Real work gets done in 6.75 and 8ft beds.
The superduty, and it’s not even close.
2001 Tacoma: 1,600lb in the bed or 5,000lb towed 22/25 mpg EPA
2018 F250: 3130lb in the bed or 17,600lb towed (not EPA tested, real world 16mpg, Lie-O-Meter usually shows 18mpg)
I really don’t understand the fetish for small pickup trucks. They aren’t coming back, if only due to safety standards. Plus, you can’t get in them while wearing a hard hat.
quick edit: my old '95 F150 is a 6cyl. It carries about 800lb of tools and materials every day and gets a real 17mpg on the highway if I keep it at 65mpg. Since it’s that old wheezy I6 motor it’ll drop to about 14mpg if I push it to 75mph. 15mpg on my normal days staying in town and not driving long distances on those fast highways.
Yeah, that’s how I’ve always thought of it.
