The number of massive trucks I see without a speck of dirt in the bed that are used mainly for commuting and groceries is pathetic.
It’s become a wealth/status symbol for people who don’t like the more traditional bougie shit. Lets them still delude themselves into thinking they’re salt of the earth types.
I can afford for 2/3 of my vehicle to be functionally useless! Dohohohoho!
So much this. I can somewhat forgive a stupid sized truck if it was used for work or some kind of off roading.
