Canadian here - they’re useless here too. Saw a guy the other day who couldn’t even put some 2x4s in his box because it was to short due to having full size back seats. He had them poking through the window into the cab 😂
the actual bed size is smaller than the old 90s ford rangers', iirc.
I bet it was a half-ton sporty short-box.
With the rear seats dropped my MK5 GTI has almost as much cargo space as some of those bloated cries for help.
I saw a truck today, and I thought, if it were 1995 and you showed my mechanic old timer uncle that truck, he'd call you a yuppie
Big, beefy, and engineered to be loud this truck was, I don't think you could fit a 2x4 in the bed
