I’m a big bearded white guy and look like I should drive a stupid truck, or at least I would look that way with some shades and a baseball cap. Where I live is pretty white, surrounded by rural areas, so the trucks are everyyywhere. I doubt I need to convince anybody on here that these vehicles are bad, but I have a couple of observations from my perspective here in real america(/s).
I have a couple of friends who are those rare truck owners due to legitimate need because they are literal farmers, in addition to their day jobs (this is the USA, after all). Not only are their pastures on steep hillsides, but they only have huge animals like horses and cattle so that comes with pulling trailers and hauling bales of hay, etc. The trucks LOOK like they are farm trucks, their back seat areas in the cabs are dedicated to dogs, and the drivers are… petite women. 🤣 They are super nice and generous too, so I get to do the “have a friend with a truck” thing.
But, since I live close to a Home Depot, I don’t borrow one of the trucks unless I am buying 12+ foot (3.66+ meter) lumber or an appliance.
Every time I’m at Home Depot in old clothes with cuts on my arms and legs, loading standard 8’ (2.44m) lumber into my decade-old economy sedan, I’m surrounded by people who look like me demographically but are dressed much more cleanly and getting into shiny clean late model luxury SUVs or the hulking pickup trucks that cost even more.
Here’s a due with a fukken Dodge RAM using it mainly to drive his daughter to school. It’s ~800 meters, and there are hundreds of little kids walking that same route. Way to go, you lazy idiot.
It’d be nice to get them out of America, too.
Yes, please.

And Canada. They’re everywhere here. Idiots only using them to commute to work every day.
“But I need it” Fuck off.

And Greenland. America as in North America and South America. Also do Afro-Eurasia and Oceania please. Don’t forget Antarctica.
