the reason trump demanding the EU buys american cars is ridiculous. americans out there might be used to cars like the ford F150
in some EU countries this requires a licence higher than a car to even drive due to its size but could you imagine driving this mfer around these streets
you might say oh thats a backroad, be fair well alright
the fact of the matter is these cars aren’t being bought in europe because they are just not practical to drive in most of europe. forget licencing and fuel cost aside (the cost of petrol is MUCH higher in europe than the US and they guzzle fuel)
they are just impractical for daily use
all of those above examples were for italy, which fair enough ok. let’s have a look at a much more care dependant country, like the UK
this is a fairly average street in the UK. where the HELL would you park that beast and you would struggle to get it even down the road. the EU isn’t not buying american made cars because they’re suppressing the US market, there is just little to no demand for US style cars
