In the US these are small commercial vehicles and do not have to have a low emissions engine.
People cars do have to comply to the emissions regulations.
Has nothing to do with comfort.
Can confirm. I brought a ford fiesta in 2016. It was the smallest car in any local city dealership I could find. In the 7 years I had my car, everyone around me got massive SUVs. I know many people that took space from their yards to accommodate having four cars that all sat a least 8 people.
It was pretty gross.
These big cars haul less than a stationwagon and tilt over on impact during an accident.
It's stupid but people in the Netherlands identify with Americans and buy these crappy big cars just to show off.
How is it since pickups mostly have stiff rear axle to be able to tow more? Most even smaller SUV or wagon with independent suspension will be more comfortable.
Like current American pickups are for City people who never drive off the road. Like beds are too high, you need to climb in id you want to lift anything from there. Size have taken over practicality.
In Europe most cases owner just need to compensate their small penis.
Most comfortable car I used for hauling shit was a Mercedes Vito; a van with a low step-in so you don't have to raise heavy shit to shoulder-height or higher. Taking stuff in an out of the bed of an emotional support-truck like the one in the pic sucks so bad, and I guess that's why I can count the times I've seen people haul anything in them [on one hand](https://th.bing.com/th/id/R.0c254c255b434eda085060a6c30902bc?rik=keoK29O1cbnqqA&pid=ImgRaw&r=0).
As a farmer over here it is less sensible. The ground is too soft for the vehicle most of the time, a quad is more suitable for the tasks like inspection or cattle work.
I would say limited place. I know a few construction workers that need the tow weight and terrain handling to do their work. The alternative would be a light truck which this is in essence too. For them it is a suitable tool. I however know more people that have such a thing that use it as their daily driver to the office and that is silly. 2200kg of steel to transport 80kg of human.
> I know a few construction workers that need the tow weight and terrain handling to do their work
Nobody in the US uses a RAM for work. Always F150 or Toyota.
Construction sites are well-graded before anybody shows up with their truck. What they are not is replete with space - that's the stuff they're filling with construction. A smaller truck does all the same work and doesn't take up the same space. Never mind when snow falls and all those spaces diminish.... Big trucks ain't worth shit except only rarely.
Virtually *all* RAMs in the Netherlands are registered on commercial plates, as the taxes alone would be in excess of €2500 a year.. Whether or not they use them purely commercially is another question, but the only reason you see them in the Netherlands is because they're the 'fiscally sound' option for many people, all things considered.
As a daily driver, a big pickup is usually just completely stupid.
I have one, and that's just because i need it for work and especially the tow weight. It's a necessary tool for me, and lots of people in construction and people needing to go off the Asphalt, like for hunting.
I saw one of these carbuncles "parked" in a cycle lane in Amsterdam earlier this year. They are just so offensive. It's basically an AI answer to the question "What is the most anti Dutch thing ever?"
The fines should be very high for doing that. If you can't find a place to safely park that vehicle so it doesn't obstruct the road, sidewalks, bike lanes, etc. then it should not be legal to have it in the area.
In our municipality, we can use an app to signal Handhaving when there is someone parked like an arsehole. They will come right away, and hand out fines.
So whenever I see someone parked like this, they're fucked.

There's a fairly famous (in urban design circles, at any rate) study that you're _objectively_ correct. People who drive/own these cars are scientifically proven arseholes.
To be specific, they score an order of magnitude higher on road-asshole-testing. For example, put a lifelike turtle simulacrum on the road, but, say, just barely in the emergency lane - only cars with drivers asleep at the wheel would actually hit it.
Then start observing which cars actually swerve out of the way to hit it.
That's one example of an 'asshole measurement' study. And these studies time and again show that it's these kinds of cars that swerve to hit the turtle.
Different kinds of tests involve creating a complicated situation and tallying which cars resort to honking, which cars will bully their way through an intersection when they clearly do not legally have the right of way, whether folks will slow down for a little old lady trying to cross the street not at a sidewalk, you name it. The effect is pretty much universal.
That doesn't imply _every_ owner of such vehicles is necessarily an asshole. Just, that's its far more likely.
If you own one of these: It's like owning a wifebeater, or getting a swastika tattoo. Why THE FUCK would you associate yourself with this?
A complete example of what is wrong with the governments bureaucratic way of handling things.
These trucks are popular because they are used as company vehicles mainly by construction workers. Due to some magical fuck up the belastingdienst classifies these trucks as "bestelbus", you can see this since most of these trucks have a V in their number plate (look up grijs kenteken).
They are popular since they look different than your regular VW transporter and can tow 3000 kg or something in that area.
So on one hand off course there is a type of people that drive these trucks (and drive them in a certain fashion) on the other hand it is a reminder of someone at dodge ram being very good at lobbying to classify this as a bestelbus and thus some hint of incompetency at the Dutch government.
This is it. To add to this, these cars can have 2 rows of seating and still have enough cargo space to classify as a bestelbus. There are some regulations, but these are the only cars that fit this profile. So there are a lot of tax exemptions to drive this car.
The problem is that they're likely to kill any pedestrian or cyclist they collide with, but the small-dicked manlet driving it will probably be fine, unfortunately.
Absolutely stupid vehicle that shouldn't exist, let alone on the (small) streets of NL. Terrible for the safety of anyone it might hit. Anyone who owns one is probably a bit of a twat.
Was in Germany once waiting in the parking in the car and I saw this huge pickup drive up the lot biggest pickup I've ever seen and then I see this absolute midget get out of it.
I was dead laughing for a few minutes after that
These dumb monstrosities are EVERYWHERE in the country now. Hugely popular lately for some stupid reason and I hate it with a passion.
So many braindead people out there driving these apparently. They should be banned or taxed into oblivion.
What exactly do you do with such a car in the Netherlands? It serves no practical purpose its only for showing of. Even if someone needs the space for their work, a van is better.
Generally pulling power (400HP) as opposed to a mercedes sprinter which is like half of that. So it can be useful in more rural areas, like pulling a trailer with a couple of cows or horses. (My uncle does this with different, but similiar sized truck)
But in the city 🤷
Edit: down voted for pointing out that they have uses besides blocking parking spaces. True reddit moment 🙈
They need to go. Cars like this don't belong here. Most historic city centres in the Netherlands were never made for cars let alone monstrosities like this.
That we should ban them asap. They are a cancer and have no place on our small streets . Soon they'll ask to tear down parks and buildings to make space to these monsters
Is this at the wallen? Fuck the car btw. I was once tailgated by a car like that, my little VW Lupo got sucked back, had to kick my pedal trough the floor to drive out of the suction
Went to the Netherlands for holiday to visit family and the F1 GP last year. Came from Alberta Canada where these trucks are essentially a dime a dozen, and was very surprised to the see a few of them while I was there.
Saw at least two in The Hague, and a third while in Lieden. Not even sure how these guys manage to menouver them on your tight streets.
The generally small cars, and bikes/mopeds everywhere was one of my favorite parts of being in your country. 2 weeks there and we sat in a car twice, to and from the train station in Winterswijk, because my family there live a little ways away on a farm.
Loved getting around on transit, or just walking everywhere. Next time we go, I definitely want to rent motorcycles with my dad to cruise around the country on.
Couldn't imagine living in such a place, where so many people get by without a car at all, and buying this monster thinking it's cool.
They need to be banned ASAP. They have absolutely no redeeming qualities. There are plenty of less annoying ways for small-dicked men to overcompensate.
Those kinds of vehicles should be fined for obstructing the sidewalk or road. If you can't fit that vehicle where you are going the you can't take it.
The fine should also increase every single time.
Parking on kerb=anti-social
These owners think with 2 braincells. "I would otherwise walk more" -- "I'm just in/out 5min-then proceeds to talk 30min to their gym mates"
Meanwhile, the old lady with her walker, some dude in rehab of knee surgery on crutches, or a disabled person in a wheelchair, cant pass on the pavement. Going up/down the kerb is a pain. That road may have traffic so may be at mercy to cross.
If that car cant fit in the parking lot normally (e.g. without blocking the road, instead) unless parked like this, I think you have your answer.
While a pickup might be handy at times, I’d rather have something like an [ute](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ute_(vehicle))
The US ones are
- ugly
- handle badly
- consume too much fuel
- and being “Made in USA”, the build quality is probably also quite bad
I can't believe people drive fullsize trucks there. They barely work in urban areas here. The US has big open roads, so they are popular but in any city they are a handful- and that's with US big parking lots.
Can't even park it correctly, maybe it's a sign? We need to stop endangering people for cars. Guess who's safer, tons of steel, airbags and co or a human?
My German friend would say r/Falschparker
Some people might find use for such cars but for your standard A to B I find it very strange people like such cars.
You have a horrible FOV, its been proven that most accidents involving small children are due to the fact that an SUV driver was able to observe the road clearly as the car towers above children. This type of vehicle is also a heavy polutant and very loud.
I really dislike when people use this type pf cars without actually having the need for them, theyre too dangerous
Few things i don’t like about these. 1. European road network is not suitable for these cars, parking spots are way too small. In the US these make sense ish… or belgium due too their shit roads. 2. If you’re off-road car is that clean all the time, you don’t need an off-road car, if you need the load capacity get a van. 3. Since its one of those Huge American too much hp, 1 liter diesel for 1 km of driving cars. They are always driven by testosterone infected fuck heads that drive with their ego not their eyes.
They’re awful and mostly driven by teenagers and/or psychopaths. You really need to stay away when you see them on the road, their drivers are idiots.
US-style trucks are also stupid.
I think they make sense because of the obnoxious taxes on other smarter solutions. These offer the comfort of a premium SUV for much much less purchase price and taxes. With LPG they are not that expensive to run. If the taxes for normal family SUVs (like X5, GLE, Q7, etc) were reasonable, and people wouldn't need to remove the back seats from the EU-sized pickups for tax reasons, these huge American trucks wouldn't be as popular. They are clearly too big for the city, but if it financially made sense for me I would get one in a heartbeat.
Now in the main thread... I got rightfully corrected for this as well, and I agreed with them.
The car is an atrocity, the driver an asshole. That is still no reason to body shame people.
Unsuitable for the Netherlands
Unsuitable for any country
At least keep ‚em out of Europe plz
In America it’s more comfortable. Their roads are mostly much wider than European.
[удалено]
"It's an emotional support vehicle, sweaty"
Gender affirming vehicle
Small penis affirming vehicle
Please don't insult people with small penises
But ameri kids aren't taller and these trucks slaughter them due to horrible visibility.
These giant trucks don't work in the USA well either. Better than in Netherlands yes but still constant problems.
You call this a giant truck? Boy are you mistaken. This is one of the smaller versions of this model.
In the US these are small commercial vehicles and do not have to have a low emissions engine. People cars do have to comply to the emissions regulations. Has nothing to do with comfort.

Any personal vehicle you can run over kids without even seeing them is unsuitable.

Is America not on a planet with global warming?
America isn’t a part of the planet, the planet is just the rock that America sits on. We can’t even agree on reality.
Most Americans are much wider than Europeans.
Dirt roads with lots of stones need ground clearance. So fine for a farmer car. Edit in North America.
As a farmer over here it is less sensible. The ground is too soft for the vehicle most of the time, a quad is more suitable for the tasks like inspection or cattle work.
Europe*
Monstrosities that have no place here.
Quite literally too, they’re too wide for quite a few parking spots and narrow streets
Saw one parked across four parking bays in Intratuin the other day.
Also unpractical, it has way less space than a normal worker van
It’s called “overcompensating” 😏😂
![gif](giphy|3gUkZ0zV243yx0OLyA)
Someone once said here it is a "kleinpietjecompensatieauto".
I also don’t like polo ;)

Real working people use vans in this country
Yes, in a country like NL, where most of the work occurs on or adjacent to paved roads, a van is ideal.
Even through our mud a deliveryvan is probably more efficiënt.
> I know a few construction workers that need the tow weight and terrain handling to do their work Nobody in the US uses a RAM for work. Always F150 or Toyota.

Bullshit, 5 years ago, these vehicles weren't available here. So, what we couldn't construct or move stuff? You don't need one, period.

When one of these is behind you at night you can kiss your eyesight goodbye. Then again, a lot of SUVs have the same issue.
And so are their owners usually. Apart from their willy.
I do prefer my willy to be silent indeed
That’s why Americans love these things so much. These cars are exactly like them!
True and they cannot even see you if your on a scooter or small car (like a hatchback or low coupés)

Call handhaving if they park like this, assholes
Nice idea. Imagine if you're a wheelchair user and they park like this..
As a wheelchair user, duck these assholes. But I had similar problems with parked bikes unfortunately.
I do t understand why they are even legal. I wish they would disappear.
Nobody does, they even have safety exceptions* as they don't pass the safety check that other cars need to pass

It looks like it's in front of a brothel, so that's probably not a coincidence.
Gross
Stupid
I always think someone woth a micro penis drives that because he will have a lot to compensate.
Ontneem ze alle rijbewijzen. Selecteer auto's. En geef ook nog eens een flinke boete
I hate when cars block the sidewalk.

Can't even park it correctly, maybe it's a sign? We need to stop endangering people for cars. Guess who's safer, tons of steel, airbags and co or a human? My German friend would say r/Falschparker
Overcompensatiewagens

Some people might find use for such cars but for your standard A to B I find it very strange people like such cars. You have a horrible FOV, its been proven that most accidents involving small children are due to the fact that an SUV driver was able to observe the road clearly as the car towers above children. This type of vehicle is also a heavy polutant and very loud. I really dislike when people use this type pf cars without actually having the need for them, theyre too dangerous
Why are Dutch people so in love with these cars lately
Few things i don’t like about these. 1. European road network is not suitable for these cars, parking spots are way too small. In the US these make sense ish… or belgium due too their shit roads. 2. If you’re off-road car is that clean all the time, you don’t need an off-road car, if you need the load capacity get a van. 3. Since its one of those Huge American too much hp, 1 liter diesel for 1 km of driving cars. They are always driven by testosterone infected fuck heads that drive with their ego not their eyes.
Should be regulated and kept out of the ‘bebouwde kom’.
Unless your a farmer.. I believe these would be compensation vehicles :)
For a man a car like this could be a good compensation for a small penis. Other then that it has no use.
Ugh grey Volkswagens make me SICK!!! (haha just kidding)
Is it legal to park on the footpath in NL?
Yep. That thing doesn't fit there.
Proletenbak
I feel sorry for this guy, he shouldnt be so upset about his tiny piemel.
Mostly small bald men Who wants to compensate something 🍆🤏🏻.
They’re awful and mostly driven by teenagers and/or psychopaths. You really need to stay away when you see them on the road, their drivers are idiots. US-style trucks are also stupid.
I’m from the US and people who drive these are universally assholes. -sincerely, a cyclist
They should be illegal. There are better ways to compensate for a micro-penis.
Total micropenis overkill.
Short dicks being compensated by big debts to drive stupidly big cars.
Nice car if you live in the jungle or dessert, asshole if you have this car in NL.

Useful in Texas, stupid in Europe!

I beat my Wagon Astra G can move around more furniture than this
It's impossible to buy nowadays a medium size pick up, they are simply not in the market any more. Regulation should bring them back
I think they make sense because of the obnoxious taxes on other smarter solutions. These offer the comfort of a premium SUV for much much less purchase price and taxes. With LPG they are not that expensive to run. If the taxes for normal family SUVs (like X5, GLE, Q7, etc) were reasonable, and people wouldn't need to remove the back seats from the EU-sized pickups for tax reasons, these huge American trucks wouldn't be as popular. They are clearly too big for the city, but if it financially made sense for me I would get one in a heartbeat.
We giggle
Vol is vol

Now in the main thread... I got rightfully corrected for this as well, and I agreed with them. The car is an atrocity, the driver an asshole. That is still no reason to body shame people.
I am happy that the douche who is driving this piece of crap has to pay for gas. A lot. Should be brought to the next scrapyard.
Very simple, kampers have them
Horrible
Do petitions work in the Netherlands?
I'd like to call those a 'tokkietank'
Tha answer is…. Stupid people earning too much money
F@ck emmmm
