> Since virtually no one drives gigantic american-style pickups in EU

Farmers and other people who work in land industries use them all over the world. Have you been out of a city much? What do you think they use instead? The brands just tend to be Japanese outside the US.

Most people are not farmers. Even then, have you seen the size of American F-150 style trucks in person? They are absolutely enormous. Even farmers do not drive cars that big, at least in the UK.

I think that by "gigantic american-style pickups" he meant full-size pickups. From what I've read, most pickups in Europe are mid-size.

That's what I meant. I have spent a lot of time in the countryside and have visited most of the countries in the EU, but I see a truck like F-150 only once in a few years.
