Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

There's also double the seating in the one at the rear. The beds looks about the same size, but if the cabs had the same seating the primary difference would be the height.
But then it wouldn't be as reaction inducing.

More seating isn't an excuse - it's just a symptom of the problem.

Trucks were supposed to be practical work vehicles, but they've just become glorified masculine SUVs.

I'm saying if both vehicles bad the same number of seats, the length would be about the same.
That doesn't mean the height is justified, but it would be much more helpful to compare vehicles with the same utility from back then and today.
