Trump Says Japan to Import Ford’s Huge F-150 Pickup Trucks

Unfortunately, the F-150 Pickup Trucks are not suitable for Japanese roads and parking lots. It's not a matter of the quality of the vehicle, but rather that it is not suited to the circumstances in Japan.

I could hardly believe it, but I've witnessed multiple men trying to navigate the mean streets over there in Hummer H2s. They were all driven by the Japanese equivalent of "Deano" if that makes any sense: young, hair immaculately coiffed and dyed orange, brash and oblivious. We like to view Japan through the lens of tidy urban utopianism, but this guy seems to exist in every culture.

The difference is this:

At a mega-crowded beach during peak season where people come to party and hooligans like to show off, let's say Izu's Shirahama for example, there'll be maybe a dozen of such big stupid trucks in total. And that's throughout the 10 or more huge (and full) parking lots.

For fun reference:
