Just look at that. This truck is taller than a used kid (10 years old). I assume the truck can run over pretty much any other age but probably the driver might be able to see older kid's heads. Or we could teach our kids to jump to school rather than walk. If you see a truck, jump and make eye contact before jumping while crossing the street. Or we could tell our kids to never go outside until they are 21.

Lexus RX450h Advance

It's not big big, but still big enough to fall into the SUV class, and certainly quite big for the tiny roads in the UK

picrel isn't mine, but is very similar

what's the mileage on it?

2021 RadPower Radrunner 2, a 2018 Chevy Bolt, and a 2008 Dodge Sprinter that runs on used cooking oil. The sprinter smells of fish and chips when I actually need that capacity of carry ability.

Even the Sprinter's hood is at least a foot and a half, if not two feet lower than that monstrosity, and I can shove way more into it than that thing can carry. I know because I have used it to move 10 ton loads of river rocks for a friend that was removing their lawn.

Bicycle or skateboard usually, if I have to drive it's either a 5 speed Subaru Legacy or a Prius

I used to live on a farm without trash pickup, so she got a good bit of work done. Not longer on the farm since my parents passed, but didnt have the courage to trade her in since it was my moms favorite vehicle.

Still get the occasional full load since I'm a big dude with a truck. Makes me feel good helping out people with small cars.

here she is
