I have to ask, every large pick-up I've had a go at driving has the turning radius of an aircraft-carrier, I know that American roads tend to be wider, but how many 30 point turns do you find yourselves doing in it?

I've never needed to do more than a 3 point turn in my truck. Being aware of exactly how far the front and rear bumpers are is incredibly important for not having to do a bunch of back and forths - which modern sensors make a breeze. The reason the turning radius is relatively terrible is because the axels are so far apart (good weight distribution).

> I have to ask, every large pick-up I've had a go at driving has the turning radius of an aircraft-carrier Some of the big trucks have rear wheels that steer too to help with that. Also, have you driven a Ford C-MAX? It's very narrow for a four-door sedan/hatchback, which is great for getting into tight parking spots, except it has the worst turning radius ever.
