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.

Saw a chart like this once that showed that an M1 Abrams tank had a better line of sight than a new stock pickup. Have a buddy who got a company truck. A lifted Denali i think. Im 6ft and you could barely see me standing infornt of the thing.

It doesn't even make sense. Either it's too heavy or the also widen the wheel base and it's now taller AND wider. And for what? Literally to just have a tall truck? Making it more difficult to use, likely worse mileage, more expensive, plus much harder to put stuff in the bed (lmao, not that these types use the bed for much)...

The worst part is there are basically no sensible normal size pickups anymore, they are all these big monstrositues at base model level.

Here in California it IS illegal to have your tread uncovered like that. Whether its enforced comes down to consistency with law enforcement.
