this whole truckzilla problem could have been stomped over a decade ago with intelligent policy.

the problem is Canada does not have it's own policy, we use US laws. Because we make their stupid trucks here.

Outside of North America, these are real work trucks:

    That's the truck I want, damnit. You can fill it with dirt, or knock it flat to carry sheet goods and lumber!

    If you search "compact pickup" in Canada you get the godamned Jeep Gladiator, the Hyundai Santa Cruz, and the Chevrolet Colorado. All three are enormous and one of them just an SUV that's missing row of seats! And despite weighing 1300lbs more than my shitty old ranger they have the same payload capacity!
