My one borked Linux install came from what I’m guessing was a mem leak in Endeavour (Firefox related or otherwise I’ll never know) stopping up an update/upgrade and not finishing all the post install scripts before rebooting. You’ll be fine, but Endeavour is close enough and does look good out of the box :⁠-⁠)

“a man” my ass!!

CAFE, safety, larger wheels, more gadgets. These mega corps do their research. Turns out the “real small truck lovers” are a vocal minority, or the things you say you want didn’t include all the things you take for granted in every new car because they just…are.

Ford and Hyundai have tried to bring service to that market with the Maverick and Santa Cruz, respectively. My folks have one and love it, but I’ve found most people still complain because they “don’t need that big if a truck” but then you mention towing/hauling capacity and they say “well why can’t it just tow something small like an F150 does? I’m not trying to get a dually but if I didn’t want to do X then I’d just get a car!” I suspect most people’s “truck needs” would be accommodated but fomo and marketing leads buyers astray even when they already know what they want. Or they’re fickle and just need something to complain about.
