Colorado is considering a bill that would allow people to drive adorable Japanese tiny-trucks on most of the state’s roads. US car manufacturers are fighting against the bill. (www.cpr.org)

We already drive Japanese cars on the roads. Why can’t we drive small ones?

It's the child-slayer emotional support trucks that can't see the damn road ahead of themselves that are broadly unsafe vehicles. I had an arrogant boss tell me "maybe unsafe for you, but I'll crush the other guy and be fine!"

Thus, in the future, all cars will be ten tons minimum, and you drive by feeling the impacts as you hit stuff bumping around the neighborhood.

Cause its piracy against cuck trucks. Having a small, effecient vehicle that is more practical, has more cargo space and capacity and is cheaper is simply unamerican.
