bigger for obvious reasons? please elaborate.

A small diesel 4 cylinder offers v8 like torque, and great fuel economy. Diesel engines are NOT available in america in anything approaching what I wanted.
Not everyone wants a penis extension... I needed a work truck, not a toy.

Hilux was never offered in America... their equivalent was the tacoma which was offered petrol only

I would consider the raptor as a "toy".. similar to a bowler... It's a luxury for those who can afford it, but it will never be "practical"

really if you can't figure out why we might have bigger vehicles over here then this is not a disussion im interested in pursuing.

good day to you sir.
