And yes, the problem with the new trucks is the front end, not the total height. And yes, that was done on purpose to make them look more "macho".

that should be changing soon. But technically, if they offer you your job back, you lose UI if you refuse it. Or did that rule also change with the cares act?
I know in the old days refusing to return to work would cancel your UI but covid changed everything. I’m guessing fear of infection is grounds for refusing to return.
There must be something different going on with the rules because I heard on the news today that the unemployment figures are higher than they should be because people are “evaluating their circumstances” and deciding to stay home.

The last time I drove it (after my dad has passed in 2016), I realized it really wasn't all that big - but, I'd owned an Explorer and and Expedition in the meantime, so I had something of similar size (or larger) to compare it against.
I can't imagine what driving a new pickup would be like - I know these things are way more luxurious now, but the visibility must be lousy.

So, how can we go about getting a slice of this scrumptious pie, again?! LOL
However.... visibility is pretty rotten, even on the '97 F350, in comparison to the C20. Mine is really sporty for a pickup (in terms of handling), but it's not just that which makes it feel small... the cab's glass-to-area ratio really favors the glass, and it is that which allows me to maneuver it with confidence in small spaces.
The most recent "modern" pickup I've driven is, I think, a 2016 Ram 1500 (4x4), and that one felt really big due to the high seating position and just lots and lots of blind spots. Visibility was like driving a big rig compared to the C20, but it had a glassy smooth, comfy ride (also in contrast to the C20).

It was wide, but that just required enough space since it was easy to see the sides and where you were. Now, backing up? that was not for the faint of heart without a spotter! In those days, no cameras on them.
actually, reminds me of having the Odyssey. Longest car I every owned or drove regularly, but really easy to drive since it was maneuverable, and small up front so easy to see what you were doing.

So fora truck I’d be looking for a 2001-2006 model. Something like this.

My brother was working at a Mopar dealership at the time, he removed the factory speed limiter and we took it out for a test spin. A deputy sheriff got us on radar at a really illegal speed, but luckily he knew my brother.

For one thing, never write “Never worked” in a car ad. Second... “shows no wear”? Are you kidding? All I see is wear. And based on the yellow staining on the visor, ceiling console, and center console, I’d guess this was a smoker’s car.
Taking all of that into account, I don’t even care that this BHPH dealer does not even offer a price.

Although, in XEROX’s situation, not sure where they are these days. I know they’ve split off bits and pieces of the company. But, they were fat and happy back in the ‘90s and lost their way. I’ve been away from that company for a while. So, aside from them trying to reinvent themselves as a document management company (not even sure what that means), they certainly haven’t been the copier powerhouse they were when I was there.
Companies do some stupid things. They relocated me to TX in July, 45 days later they decided to close that plant in the fall. I hadn’t even made my first house payment yet! I was young and single at the time but the household goods move and a month in temp house in still had to cost them 20k.

When I moved to the liquor business it was a very different story. The private-sector management team did not hesitate to let people go, but they were treated well if that happened with generous severance and benefits. For most of them, it was the best thing that ever happened to them because they found far more fulfilling and suitable jobs elsewhere. I saw it just like pruning a tree in that it made the organism much healthier. I wonder how much the government payroll here would decrease if they adopted that philosophy, having seen so many people during my time in government just putting in time and doing the bare minimum until they waited for their pension eligibility.

By the 1990s, working at Chevron after they bought up Gulf, the situation was completely different. Major layoffs every other year. We joked about “management by layoffs”. Eventually it became a matter of who you knew, not what you knew. Skills, hard work, dedication, that wasn’t enough. You had to have someone in management pulling for you, or you were history.
I’d like to amend that to “you will ever NEED to do.” Because I don’t NEED to leave rubber stripes on the road, but I do it everytime out! ;b

I’ve had three BMW shades of blue: Atlantic, Riviera, and LeMans. I also like Avus, Phytonic, Portimao, and Tanzanite.
