In Europe or France? Pickup trucks are all over Europe. How many do you see in the cities over there, certain parts of which have very narrow streets? I have never seen a Ford F1XX ever, in Paris, France.

Dang thing would cost you an arm and a leg in Paris to keep gassed up and where the heck would you park it?
On the other hand, I have seen many happy Harley owners in Paris...

None of America’s favorite pickups from Ford, GMC/Chevrolet, and Ram, are sold in Europe. Just too big, and the commercial truck tax breaks don’t kick in until the payload gets to one ton.
There are are number of much smaller pickups, flatbeds (which are actually practical compared to a pickup), and small delivery vans available in Europe, almost all with diesel engines. Total sales are around 100,000 units out of 10+ million vehicles sold.
