Also if you see the parking lots where they park the trucks that need fixed (mostly from faulty wiring), man! Sometimes the main lot is completely full so they have to use the stadium by the plant’s parking lots and if it’s bad enough, CEDAR FUCKING POINT!!

To be serious for a sec, those stats and visuals of how dangerous trucks are is actually terrifying. Especially in my case where my 17 y/o brother recently bought one and he’s been in two accidents in the past 6 months and is on good behaviour(1 accident in the truck where he backed into a car and 1 where he lost control in the rain and completely wrecked the car (this didn’t happen in the truck, it was his previous car but pretty scary, he was fine tho, he had air bags. The good behaviour is bc he got caught speeding 30km over the limit but he was able to keep his license as his job requires a car). I’ve seen the way that my brother drives and I know exactly how dangerous every time he’s on the road is. I live in an area with a lot of kids bc I live in the centre of an education hub and I always fear a small child running into the road as he’s always speeding and I fear the stopping distance.
The most depressing thing is everyone driving M1A1s would likely prevent some pedestrian deaths cause they have better front visibility than most consumer pickup trucks.
The ability to stop on a dime would definitely save lives. Pros of everybody driving MBTs -never worry about parallel parking -no need for roads -instead of servicing your engine or transmission just replace the whole thing -badass -270 degree blindspots -if two vehicle collide it's horrible instant death for everybody involved, meaning you don't need to pay for repair
@@lawnmowerdude There are cars that are well built and there are American cars that make it really easy for a mannequin stand to destroy them so you have to go to a mechanic.
As an auto insurance claims adjuster I am thrilled you are producing anti-pedestrian killing technology, our company doesnt fund those studies but luckily we know a lot about how transmissions get damaged from running over people.
@@TarmanTheChampion Legs getting folded backwards + the big ride height forcing pedestrians under the truck + how damn tough human leg bones really are = some really mangled limbs that have a very easy time destroying pipes under the truck. It's an absolute disgrace that the affordable micro-cars (which are still pretty safe for all parties by todays safety standards) have been almost entirely phased out of production because of constant governmental interference and how hard it was to make any amount of money on them, meanwhile car companies wanting to avoid troublesome things like safety standards and fuel efficiency standards just made every new car so large that fatalities are skyrocketing again
2:40 such a good point. people back in the day really used to think the street was there to allow people to move between buildings. now we know its for cars to go fast on.
As someone who went to a technical college for two years in the welding department, your ability to MiG weld while completely unprotected concerns and amazes me.
wow, from 0:30 - 2:30 was the most concise and easily understandable 2 minutes of explaining the safety concerns of larger and larger trucks becoming normalized. well done mate, not only am i equipped with a 2 minute explanation of the problem, i had 18 minutes telling me a solution that only costs $25 at a second hand store, and masking take to afix it on my legs.
You set out to prove the lifesaving efficiency of past tech and ended up disproving the durability of "a real man's vehicle" in the process. Astounding.
The only real tough trucks anymore are just commercial vehicles. I haven't seen an actually tough truck since the early 2000s that wasn't built for commercial duty. Before everyone cries that I just insulted them for buying a compensation machine. I own an F350 from the 90s. It's tough, but also, it's not even close to being tough compared to a simple actual straight truck. Modern trucks are just less useful SUVs or work vans for guys who want to show off they goto home depot for a 5 pack of drywall anchors once a year.
"Built tough!" (Unless you have a slow speed impact with something underneath the car, but when would that ever happen to a vehicle supposedly built for off-roading?)
No car can be tough when there is a computer telling it what to do. Just you wait until all these cars with those auto start/stop functions start to mess up. They will either cost a ton to fix (even though the problem is mostly digital), or it will fail in a catastrophic way or at the most inopportune time
@@king_acceler8755from what I can see online the OEM pan is made out of cast aluminum on the bottom. It looks like what he is saying punctured the pan was a copper or brass pipe.. whatever it was was strong enough to lift a 5000 lb truck off the ground, so yeah.. idk if this person expects the pan to be made out of cobalt or something. If half the trucks weight was being pushed up by that puncture point that looks to have a radius of about .5 cm.. thats about 20000 pounds per square inch of pressure.. and thats assuming the pipe wasn't hollow, which it looks to be.. for a hollow pipe, assuming the thickness was 1mm it would be about 50000-60000 psi which is about the pressure of a bullet
19:35 you can actually see the rear wheels locked up when they drag it on the tow truck. Jeez. Now you need to build something for you truck to protect it against pedestrians.
It might have something to do with the wheel chock he left under the rear wheel. And not putting it in tow mode. A lot of modern vehicles with electronic parking brakes will automatically apply the parking brake if it detects the wheel is rolling with the engine off. There will be instructions in your owner's manual to disable the parking brake and mechanically override the transmission into neutral for this exact reason.
@@smashedpapya2563 transmissions have mechanical linkages to shift into PRNDL , unless it's a new fancy electronic version of that linkage, but they will always have a mechanical over ride to force the transmission into neutral for towing it.
You actually nailed the historical market strategy for cars; crank out a bunch of bigger cars and then blame pedestrians for getting run over when the streets were originally meant for people instead of cars. Jaywalking as a concept was only invented so car manufacturers could talk smack about people who just wanted to walk places instead of driving everywhere.
Jaywalking still amaze me to this day, could even get you arrested in America! I never heard of the word/don't know what it mean until I watch video from Climate Town channel. It simply not a thing in my country. edited: arrested
@@Lom-Rom exactly, in every country other than the united states, if you were to say "I was walking in the street, then I was arrested and fined", people either assume, or just ask "damn, what did you do?"; because it's well understood that being run over is enough punishment for being careless
The sad thing is that the real reason pickup trucks, SUVs and crossovers became so popular was because American car manufacturers started prudcing more of them and and heavily advertising them just to evade a 1978 tax that was meant to "to discourage the production and purchase of fuel-inefficient vehicles". The tax was meant to only affect passenger cars so an exemption was made for trucks, SUVs and minivans because back in 1978 these cars were mostly made for non-commercial uses, but mega-conglomeretes used this as a loophole to increase profits at the price of their consumer's fuel efficiency, the climate, and public safety.
And it got even worse about a decade ago when they tied fuel efficiency targets to vehicles' wheelbases, incentivizing vehicles, especially trucks, to get physically larger in order to lower their efficiency requirements.
The thing with "big cars" as a whole is that all you need to do to understand why they spread like a plague is to drive on a road where they have hit the "10% or above" fraction of the vehicles. Quite simply, their height and bulkiness obstructs the view of lower, smaller cars quite a lot, and some drivers feel anxious driving around vehicles significantly more imposing than their own (for good reasons), so SUVs, trucks, and co create more drivers partly through being a nuisance on the roads unless you're driving one of them too.
Actually, they're popular because they're just well enough made to fool people into thinking they're good vehicles, when in reality they're just well enough made to last the warranty. This then means they're extremely cheap to make. An estimate puts one of these trucks at a third of the market price.
the "do good" folks are at it again, and it never works "lets stop fuel inefficient" , but only for the peasants, aka, the people instead of the corporations. they deserve everything that's coming for them
@Hifuutorian I dont make my opinions for something based on what the idiots do. Hammers are used to drive in nails, I don't look down on hammers because someone used one for a murder. Just because lots of people don't use trucks properly doesn't mean I spaz out about them like redditors do. Too many people that work from a laptop all day talk about what us in the working class should be able to drive or not drive
While saying that, yes, I agree truck posers annoy me. Too many women and laptop jockeys own trucks and never actually use them for work. It gives us that actually use them properly a bad name among the laptop class and redditors and proletariat LARPers

Dunno if anyone else mentioned it but a lot of the issue with cars early on was that when they were introduced pedestrians kept walking like they always had and car drivers were fucking looney. In the US newspapers and car manufacturers introduced jaywalking and started shaming people for it to shift the blame from cars to pedestrians.
Using that logic, boats kept going clean through bridges cause bridges havent been there before. Transportation evolves. I know where I live if u don't have a big truck or suv u ain't moving 4 to 6 month of the year and I'm in what's known as a 4 season state meaning a normal climate state (pennsylvania)
Oh hey, I had to research this exact issue not long ago for a college essay. The injury, death, and all that rates apply to vehicles of the “light-truck” category which also include SUVs. SUVs also are unfortunately now one of the most common cars on US roads. This next part was my own guess and not necessarily fact from any research paper, but I believe this also means that they can market the cars as being “safer” due to the fact that, by percentage, the “light-truck” drivers are more likely to survive a crash compared to a sedan driver in the same car on car collision. There was also a bunch of other interesting information relating to SUVs being overall bad cars (gas consumption, environmental statistics, roll-overs, etc), but the main issue people saw was the collision issues, especially with pedestrians.
@@78declan no there's tons of vehicles like this with name's like "predator, black king kong, escape, eclipse, great wall, ram 750 up to ram 2500 etc.."
@Lukasfr the predator is the motor in the Ford raptor shown at the timestamp used as "proof", even a quick google search will show you there's no car called a "predator ", as that would probably get misconstrued as a "child predator " or something, would be bad for PR
Damn, the moment I saw that transmission fluid leaking out, my heart sank. A couple of years ago I hit a pothole and it punched a hole in mine to where all the fluid leaked out. I panicked and got to a mechanic right away, not realizing how bad it'd be to try and drive it like that, (especially because I thought it was an oil leak at first), and it ended up destroying my transmission. It was nearly a $2000 fix to get a new one when I finally found someone who could fix it, (rural area and half the mechanics here are "specialized" and won't work on hardly anything). The mechanic also kept coming up with excuses to put it off, so it was nearly two months to get the job done on top of that...
@@ohioplayer-bl9em Don't have full coverage insurance because it's too expensive relatively speaking. My car is old, (2006 model Chevy HHR), and basically my choice at the time was either pay the repair cost or see if I could find a car in better condition for the same price or less. As much as I hated paying for it, it was ultimately the better option because the car is still running fairly well to this day, and buying "cheap" used cars is always a big risk.
That point you brought up about the "big vehicle arms race" actually happened to me. I always wanted a small vehicle, but my grandma refused to, she needed to get me either a truck or big car for safety reasons.

I was a bis surprised that there was not engine protection underneath the car... like trans fluid? What The Hell... Coolant would be maybe more acceptable but still... a rock could hit it at that speed or a twig or something.

To be serious for a sec, those stats and visuals of how dangerous trucks are is actually terrifying. Especially in my case where my 17 y/o brother recently bought one and he’s been in two accidents in the past 6 months and is on good behaviour(1 accident in the truck where he backed into a car and 1 where he lost control in the rain and completely wrecked the car (this didn’t happen in the truck, it was his previous car but pretty scary, he was fine tho, he had air bags. The good behaviour is bc he got caught speeding 30km over the limit but he was able to keep his license as his job requires a car). I’ve seen the way that my brother drives and I know exactly how dangerous every time he’s on the road is. I live in an area with a lot of kids bc I live in the centre of an education hub and I always fear a small child running into the road as he’s always speeding and I fear the stopping distance.

-never worry about parallel parking
-no need for roads
-instead of servicing your engine or transmission just replace the whole thing
-badass

-if two vehicle collide it's horrible instant death for everybody involved, meaning you don't need to pay for repair
you also go slower, and not many people know the inside of a tank = less deaths & less driving.

@@king_acceler8755from what I can see online the OEM pan is made out of cast aluminum on the bottom. It looks like what he is saying punctured the pan was a copper or brass pipe.. whatever it was was strong enough to lift a 5000 lb truck off the ground, so yeah.. idk if this person expects the pan to be made out of cobalt or something. If half the trucks weight was being pushed up by that puncture point that looks to have a radius of about .5 cm.. thats about 20000 pounds per square inch of pressure.. and thats assuming the pipe wasn't hollow, which it looks to be.. for a hollow pipe, assuming the thickness was 1mm it would be about 50000-60000 psi which is about the pressure of a bullet
19:35 you can actually see the rear wheels locked up when they drag it on the tow truck. Jeez. Now you need to build something for you truck to protect it against pedestrians.
Yeah I did not feel good watching that
It might have something to do with the wheel chock he left under the rear wheel. And not putting it in tow mode. A lot of modern vehicles with electronic parking brakes will automatically apply the parking brake if it detects the wheel is rolling with the engine off.
There will be instructions in your owner's manual to disable the parking brake and mechanically override the transmission into neutral for this exact reason.
That's just because its stuck in park, without fluid the transmission cant build hydraulic pressure and will not shift
@@smashedpapya2563 transmissions have mechanical linkages to shift into PRNDL , unless it's a new fancy electronic version of that linkage, but they will always have a mechanical over ride to force the transmission into neutral for towing it.
so you cant even shift fords into neutral if there's something wrong? seems very counter intuitive

You actually nailed the historical market strategy for cars; crank out a bunch of bigger cars and then blame pedestrians for getting run over when the streets were originally meant for people instead of cars. Jaywalking as a concept was only invented so car manufacturers could talk smack about people who just wanted to walk places instead of driving everywhere.
I see, you are perhaps a conisseur of "Not Just Bikes"? Based and orange-pilled.
Jaywalking still amaze me to this day, could even get you arrested in America! I never heard of the word/don't know what it mean until I watch video from Climate Town channel. It simply not a thing in my country. edited: arrested
@@Lom-Romjaywalking by itself will not out you in jail
@@Lom-Rom exactly, in every country other than the united states, if you were to say "I was walking in the street, then I was arrested and fined", people either assume, or just ask "damn, what did you do?"; because it's well understood that being run over is enough punishment for being careless
I never heard of or met anyone getting arrested for just jaywalking in America. Then again I don't live in the south 🤷
The sad thing is that the real reason pickup trucks, SUVs and crossovers became so popular was because American car manufacturers started prudcing more of them and and heavily advertising them just to evade a 1978 tax that was meant to "to discourage the production and purchase of fuel-inefficient vehicles". The tax was meant to only affect passenger cars so an exemption was made for trucks, SUVs and minivans because back in 1978 these cars were mostly made for non-commercial uses, but mega-conglomeretes used this as a loophole to increase profits at the price of their consumer's fuel efficiency, the climate, and public safety.
So it's just usa's fault..
And it got even worse about a decade ago when they tied fuel efficiency targets to vehicles' wheelbases, incentivizing vehicles, especially trucks, to get physically larger in order to lower their efficiency requirements.
The thing with "big cars" as a whole is that all you need to do to understand why they spread like a plague is to drive on a road where they have hit the "10% or above" fraction of the vehicles.
Quite simply, their height and bulkiness obstructs the view of lower, smaller cars quite a lot, and some drivers feel anxious driving around vehicles significantly more imposing than their own (for good reasons), so SUVs, trucks, and co create more drivers partly through being a nuisance on the roads unless you're driving one of them too.
Actually, they're popular because they're just well enough made to fool people into thinking they're good vehicles, when in reality they're just well enough made to last the warranty.
This then means they're extremely cheap to make. An estimate puts one of these trucks at a third of the market price.
the "do good" folks are at it again, and it never works
"lets stop fuel inefficient" , but only for the peasants, aka, the people instead of the corporations.
they deserve everything that's coming for them

Dunno if anyone else mentioned it but a lot of the issue with cars early on was that when they were introduced pedestrians kept walking like they always had and car drivers were fucking looney. In the US newspapers and car manufacturers introduced jaywalking and started shaming people for it to shift the blame from cars to pedestrians.
Using that logic, boats kept going clean through bridges cause bridges havent been there before. Transportation evolves.

Oh hey, I had to research this exact issue not long ago for a college essay. The injury, death, and all that rates apply to vehicles of the “light-truck” category which also include SUVs. SUVs also are unfortunately now one of the most common cars on US roads.
This next part was my own guess and not necessarily fact from any research paper, but I believe this also means that they can market the cars as being “safer” due to the fact that, by percentage, the “light-truck” drivers are more likely to survive a crash compared to a sedan driver in the same car on car collision.
There was also a bunch of other interesting information relating to SUVs being overall bad cars (gas consumption, environmental statistics, roll-overs, etc), but the main issue people saw was the collision issues, especially with pedestrians.
That device definitely stopped the car, just not in the way we expected.

It was nearly a $2000 fix to get a new one when I finally found someone who could fix it, (rural area and half the mechanics here are "specialized" and won't work on hardly anything). The mechanic also kept coming up with excuses to put it off, so it was nearly two months to get the job done on top of that...

@@ohioplayer-bl9em Don't have full coverage insurance because it's too expensive relatively speaking. My car is old, (2006 model Chevy HHR), and basically my choice at the time was either pay the repair cost or see if I could find a car in better condition for the same price or less.
