See it is like a van, but somehow...... worse.
Are we on the verge of stretch limousine trucks which are just SUV stretch limos but with a pathetic-looking, tiny-ass vestigial bed at the rear?

Looks like it:
It's like Gilette "Engineers" adding another blade.
I have been so disappointed that the razor blade curve has turned out to not be true.
By that curve we should be in 5-blade times, which is correct...
That's just Kid Rock's tour bus.
That is the perfect term for all these "trucks" with short-ass beds.
Vestigial bed, lmao
This has to be a crew hauling gooseneck ready truck, for some sort of industrial crew work...
OP did it have a gooseneck hitch?
Not my picture, but no this something you see around my parts. Its normally sold to Hutterite colonies (they used to use vans) and the back generally just holds goods they buy or sell.
Texan here. I have seen a lot of trucks.
is that real?…
Yes, this is Alberta. Guess everything is bigger here....
I feel like I lost and won at the same time.
Could you imagine driving this thing in a city?
Christ, and here all I want is a small cargo van and Ford decides to discontinue selling the Transit Connect here, while in Europe they are starting to sell an electric version of the same thing.
Yeah, can't have small trucks anymore ether. But this thing is available?
Right!?!?! Check out the Hilux Champ they are selling in Thailand. I would kill for an electric version of that for daily driving in the city and whatever DIY/hardware store needs I may have. I don't need to hall heavy things just awkward and large things.
See that was one thing I was hoping for with electric, Odd small trucks making a come back. But nope, just Ferd F-teenthousand all the way down now.
Twin Axel small displacement turbo diesel..... Omg.
It wouldn’t be American if you weren‘t able to take your tank to grocery shopping on your flatbed. Freedom baby
This is in fact not American.
Hey we have one of these in my old town too.
limousine wannabe?
I'm looking for a car-truck-van-suv-limo-4x4.
All of a sudden the Homer seems like a rational automobile
Don't you touch my truck-boat-truck
(side note, look who owns it now. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wet_Nellie )
Fuck me. And he has plans to ruin the prop...
Next up, the CyberSub…. Who is ready to risk drowning in one?
As long as Musk decides to explore the Titanic on its inaugural run...

The boat is mine. The boat is MINE!
A van could transport the people, but what about his emotional support refrigerators? They won't fit in a van.
If I ever get a terminal illness I am going to spend the rest of my days slashing the tires of every overside truck I see.
Easier to clip the valve stems.
Eh good chance they will not notice and these things are over $100k so likely the monetary aspect will be shrugged off.
You underestimate the rate of deficit spending some men in the country engage in for their gender affirming vehicles...

There is a company in the city I live that has stretch limo F150's and Hummers you can rent out for shit. Imagine what you're seeing in this image but 2 to 3 times longer.
That genuinely looks like an early ai generation of a truck, is that where they got this idea?
