The only problem with any of these is the amount of garage space they take up. But, if that's what ya want, that's what ya get.

But I hear ya about "city" pickups. Either that Ford is getting bigger, parking spots are getting smaller, or I am getting older...or all 3.[This message has been edited by MidEngineManiac (edited 08-28-2021).]

Two are decidedly true.
I seriously considered a BRAT when I was in college (long ago). Then I drove one. That's as far as it went.
Was kind of cute but pretty much limited to being a small grocery getter. IIRC, the cargo was limited to 500 lbs. My motorcycle weighed that much.

Look back up the thread a ways for the term "flower car".

Flower cars were meant to carry the flowers in a funeral procession.

OK, never been into flowers. Thinking it's a waste of money but, that's just me.
Upon my demise, don't send flowers, send money to help pay for the entertainment.
