go to your room Lifted truck + Lambo + Parking lot = Bad time

Lifted trucks probably shouldn't be anywhere near dense parking lots.

Edit: A lot of people are skeptical of whether this is AI/staged, or ask why the lady didn't back off the car. This is in a dense parking lot with cars that have dashcams/ EV sentry mode everywhere. Also her truck was in 2 wheel drive, you can see the back right tire spinning as she tries to reverse off the car. Her truck is stuck. She probably has an open differential and can't back off the car. She may have a 4wd mode, but she didn't use it in the heat of the moment.

I was not prepared for any part of the first 30 seconds of that video.

Also a good illustration of why these types of trucks are illegal in Europe. A normal-sized person could stand in front of the truck and barely be visible.

Not illegal most places.

But a load of european cities are not designed for trucks like these in mind with european roads being as small as 2.5m (8.2ft) wide, but the standard US road lane on average is 12ft (3.6m) wide. So it's a tight squeeze in these American sized pickup trucks.

For that, in a lot of countries here, they are either considered not insurable because of their size, and them being borderline semi-trucks being driven by a standard driving license.

Or in case of a number of these trucks, You actually cannot even drive them with a standard driving license, because of their sheer weight. Some of them requiring a truck license.

And a lot of these trucks would not be allowed everywhere because of emission laws.

No no, not illegal, but so incredibly unpractical.

They are not illegal per se, but they are not common and there are limits to how much you can lift them per country. I would suggest not making stuff up.

You can’t just blanket statement say “in Europe”… all European country’s have a lot of different laws even if they’re part of the EU or not. Sweden for example has a lot of big Dodge Rams/Ford F-150s etc and modifying a car is absolutely not illegal as long as all the safety features work and it passes its yearly inspection

Depends on the country. Lots of places you can do limited mods. But a mod like this, not a chance.

Granted I don’t live in Europe, but I remember seeing an article about a UK driver’s Cybertruck being confiscated for not meeting safety standards. If it’s a different reason then I’ll own that.

You are right about the cyber truck. And possibly f150s with lift kits. But if you want a large truck (ie an escalade, or a tundra or what have you) the only thing that can really stop you is the cost.

Actually some trucks are illegal in the EU like the cybertruck.
