Let’s face it, if you want a pickup truck hen you have to go American. The American pickup truck philosophy appears to be simple. Massive. Massive vehicle with massive engine. No Eco-boost 2.0-litre nonsense. It’s good old fashion V8 power. And probably diesel.
Even the recently announced Rivian Pickup truck is massive in size and massive in power. We’ll have to wait and see if it ever gets made. The Rivian, being first generation EV technology will come at a premium price. So it will be out of reach for all but the wealthiest. Ah yes, America’s wealthiest elites. The elites who received a trillion dollar tax cut (disguised as a corporate tax cut) and who believe in trickle-down economics. Trickle down economics is merely a front, an imagination designed to con the working class into thinking corporations will share profits generated by the workers. But we’re now digressing from the main focus here. Pickup trucks. Motor Trend takes a look at Americas pick truck obsession to see what is best of the best.
