    As an American used to driving older cars and running over things for fun, it is absurd how easily this vehicle was damaged. I have jumped my car, used it for demolition purposes, and like to bump into things simply to amuse myself, and none of those things have damaged it functionally, aside from breaking shock absorber mounts, denting the bumper, breaking headlights, knocking the suspension out of alignment, slightly bending the frame, and eliminating the control arm bushings. This is all from jumping the car, going over curbs, and ramming things daily. To anyone curious as to how I have maintained a driver's license, I would like to clarify that I do the majority of my driving in the state of Alabama.

    Fun fact, pedestrian airbags do exist. A Swedish company named Autoliv manufactured them in the mid 2010's. It is essentially an airbag under the hood (bonnet) that inflates to create a soft cusion between the metal of the hood (bonnet) and the engine block. Only Volvo ended up buying them and no one wanted to spend the money even though in testing it did prevent a lot of injuries most decided it wasn't worth the cost.

    The sad thing is that the real reason pickup trucks, SUVs and crossovers became so popular was because American car manufacturers started prudcing more of them and and heavily advertising them just to evade a 1978 tax that was meant to "to discourage the production and purchase of fuel-inefficient vehicles". The tax was meant to only affect passenger cars so an exemption was made for trucks, SUVs and minivans because back in 1978 these cars were mostly made for non-commercial uses, but mega-conglomeretes used this as a loophole to increase profits at the price of their consumer's fuel efficiency, the climate, and public safety.

      The thing with "big cars" as a whole is that all you need to do to understand why they spread like a plague is to drive on a road where they have hit the "10% or above" fraction of the vehicles.
      Quite simply, their height and bulkiness obstructs the view of lower, smaller cars quite a lot, and some drivers feel anxious driving around vehicles significantly more imposing than their own (for good reasons), so SUVs, trucks, and co create more drivers partly through being a nuisance on the roads unless you're driving one of them too.

    • @aserta

      Actually, they're popular because they're just well enough made to fool people into thinking they're good vehicles, when in reality they're just well enough made to last the warranty.
      This then means they're extremely cheap to make. An estimate puts one of these trucks at a third of the market price.

      ​​@@king_acceler8755from what I can see online the OEM pan is made out of cast aluminum on the bottom. It looks like what he is saying punctured the pan was a copper or brass pipe.. whatever it was was strong enough to lift a 5000 lb truck off the ground, so yeah.. idk if this person expects the pan to be made out of cobalt or something. If half the trucks weight was being pushed up by that puncture point that looks to have a radius of about .5 cm.. thats about 20000 pounds per square inch of pressure.. and thats assuming the pipe wasn't hollow, which it looks to be.. for a hollow pipe, assuming the thickness was 1mm it would be about 50000-60000 psi which is about the pressure of a bullet

    Dunno if anyone else mentioned it but a lot of the issue with cars early on was that when they were introduced pedestrians kept walking like they always had and car drivers were fucking looney. In the US newspapers and car manufacturers introduced jaywalking and started shaming people for it to shift the blame from cars to pedestrians.
