Comparison left vs right for a craftsman who doesnt know which one he should buy:

  • l/r same bed size

  • r lower bed for way easier loading/unloading

  • r less likely to crash

  • r less fuel consumption and costs

  • r less expensive to repair

  • r easy to park

  • r easy to get around in narrow places like crowded construction sites or towns

  • r not participating in road arms race

  • l You get taken serious by your fellow carbrained americans because ““trucks”” are normalized and small handy cars are ridiculed.

So unless you are a fragile piece of human, choose the right one.

    You are not the arbiter on what people “need,” and people do not only purchase or consume things based on “need.” As a hilariously easy example, neither of us “needs” to be here right now having this conversation.

    Again, it’s time to re-evaluate the entire worldview

      I never claimed to be the arbiter of what people need, but im just saying consumers dont have as much freewill as they claim when they’re actively being manipulated at every corner. Marketing is literally intended to make you feel like you need a product you didn’t previously want.

        Consumers absolutely have free will. Do you have free will? You’re not unique.

        Also that is not the purpose of marketing. Marketing is designed to A) raise awareness of a product and B) show how the product is superior to other products.

        Throw out the brain rot my dude.

          I didn’t say they had no freewill, i said.

          Consumers do not have as much freewill as they claim

          And no, that is exactly the purpose of marketing, as defined in my college marketing classes. Marketing is designed to “Create value” for a product to a consumer. That is to say, make them feel like they want to buy it. And as far as tactics, its all manipulation.

            There is a no percent chance you got a good grade in that class of you don’t understand the concept of creating value

            Gonna go ahead and assume that was an undergrad class
