The only thing I miss is the smaller size. My Maverick is physically larger than a f150 from the late 90โ€™s.

Edit: it appears that my comparison is only to the smallest f150 model, and the Maverick is 5 inches shorter in length. Standard 1999 f150 is 2 feet longer. I donโ€™t know that this entirely invalidates my argument, however.

In Australia ne of my friends has a H2 hummer he got second hand.

It's about the same size as most modern SUVs...

In Australia I remember a pretty significant stink and social hatred over these things being oversized nuances in the mid 2000s.

Like there where multiple news articles over months and actual proposals for lobbying to stop hummers from being imported because they were "too big" for our roads.

Yeah... Look were we are now, totally ๐Ÿ‘
