LOL, I think our definitions of "good" handling are vastly different. Vastly. Different.
A truck with good handling.
You crack me up.
So when it wallows through the curves, it does so smoothly and consistently.
When it goes around a skid pad or on ramp, its able to to hit a whopping 0.5g
So Mr Man, how many times a week do you haul gravel, lumber, brick, appliances, and tow trailers? From your description, I take it you are a contractor and use your truck every day for work. Confirm or admit BS.
In real life, contractors use vans, because they don't want their good tools stolen from the back of a truck. In real life, whenever I see a pickup, they are pristine. The beds are never scratched and always empty. In real life, most people use them for commuting. Trucks are status symbols for people who like to fit in, but don't care one bit about driving or working.
Why would anyone want to compromise the great driving dynamics of a good sportscar, just to have a utility / truck that might haul something 3-6 times a year. That sounds like an awful compromise. Renting some crappy truck is like $18/hr. Far cheaper to do that every time than to buy such a useless truck for $20-40k. The majority of places that sell bulk material, deliver for free, in their dedicated business truck that is beat all to Sheol.
Everyday I drive to work, my car puts a smile on my face from ear to ear. Yee haw. What a great way to start work.
And *expletive deleted* polite driving.
You are self identifying as not belonging in a
armed polite civil society.
You want to safely stand out from the world. Therefore you bought a truck just... like... every... body else.
You make this too easy.
