I've done a fair bit of traveling...while they may go by different local slang names, everywhere we've been, they know what you mean when you say "pickup" and yes they have them pretty much everywhere...and they aren't confusing them with peterbuilts.
Of course, if you want to play SEMANTICS...this is a thread about a PICKUP...which is shorthand for PICKUP TRUCK. So again, what peterbuilt pickup models do you know of?
Bit lost what point you are trying to make?Yosemite Sam1 wrote:

I was just thinking the exact same thing.
Let me remind y'all again, it's a Ram truck owner boasting about the amazing accomplishment of Ram having achieved 100,000 in mileage.
The other past accomplishment was not seeing a mechanic or something breaking down past 7 days.
Ok, so WHY are we arguing again...?
I don't know about others, but I'm not arguing. I was just explaining this is not news out in Africa. Land Rovers and Land Cruisers have more heroic and upstanding accomplishments and mileage.
And with it, having fun pointing it out -- and more fun showing this thread to my Ram owning friend.
How true you are. Although Land Rovers not so common, but Land Cruisers and Nissan Patrols in the Gulf StatesYosemite Sam1 wrote:

Yeah, Robert Ryan, that's what's wrong with the Brits and all the countries that drive on the wrong side of the road.
And the solution to all your national troubles is to love and drive Ram to have an economic boom for mechanics and repair shops.

Ok, so WHY are we arguing again...?- In California “pickup” trucks are defined in highway regulations.
in Canada a pickup truck is defined as a complete vehicle when it leaves the factory. A cab and chassis truck is not a pickup, even after you upfit a flatbed or whatever body.
we drive in the middle of the road while texting. - It’s a little early for cabin fever, but apparently it’s in full swing, even in Australia where it’s summer right now!
This place never ceases to amaze me...
However I’ll say it again, this forum has taught me more about how NOT to act when I get old than any person could hope for. Now as long as I can remember that when I get old, I’ll be doing good! Lol. - Not sure why my post was quoted and cherry picked, but okay.

Speaks volumes if it is and how Cummins builds reliability into its design.
I doubt those older rovers have any emission control. Your on a very slippery slope if range rover is an example of reliability. In fact any English produced vehicle for reliability is indeed questionable. Lucas electrical systems are a gem of failures historically speaking.
