I think pickup trucks are ridiculous, but this is delightful to see. yewtu.be/watch?v=U2b8YAZEbec or https:// or www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2b8YAZEbec I think that the US auto industry's days are numbered, especially in the right hand drive market. So looks like Japan, Korea, German (and the rest of Europe's industry) along with the US are about to get schooled. The protectionism in the US means their industry will be insulated temporarily, except that profit margins will plummet.

@lightweight Seems like a fanboy video, but it'd be nice to see greener solutions in the market. I worked construction to help put me through college, and a pickup truck was a necessity for the work I did.

I also worked at an automotive supplier as part of my professional career, and it is naive to think any innovations from a competitor will take over the market. It is also naive to believe that much of the green technology isn't already stashed in a drawer at Ford or GM.

@lwriemen given the arrogance of the US market, and its protectionism, I don't share your faith in their foresight...
