[discussion] Who thought this was a good idea?
One of these pulled up at my workplace today and I can not get over how stupid they look and that got me thinking, who thought making a shittier version of an Odyssey was a good idea.
This thing can't be useful as a truck, can't seat as many as a van, costs $50k and burns more gas then an Odyssey (10l/100km hwy vs 8l/100km hwy). Does anyone who drives these things think they are hot shit?
You're viewing a single thread.
My favorite part is that the Odyssey can store larger items because of the removable back seats. If you need to move a fridge, don't call the guy who owns a truck, call the guy who owns an Odyssey.
You probably don't want mulch in your odyssey though. So call the guy with the truck if you're buying mulch.
I've done mulch in an Odyssey, just lay out a tarp. Most tarps are already bigger than a modern truckbed too.
You shoveled a bunch of mulch into the back of your minivan?
Yeah, with the seats taken out on top of a camping tarp. It's got a WAY lower bed than a truck, so it's easier to load and unload too.
How'd you get it out? Just pull the tarp?
I see people with trucks to this all the time, you put the tarp down (so you don't scratch your fancy bedliner) and when you want to empty it you use a shovel or whatever then grab the tarp in the back and pull it. Ta da, you dump the rest of the stuff out the back and get nothing left behind.
Maybe it's just easier to get all the mulch out when it's on a tarp
Fair enough, but waiting behind them in line for 20 min while they very meticulously put out their tarp has given me a negative outlook on tarp truck users.
