> It’s like the aesthetics of a pickup truck is offensive to some people. Kind of bizarre and not something I’m used to seeing but I guess I live in Ohio so that probably has something to do with it.
The vehicles are gigantic and are capable of carrying thousands of pounds but are operated by people who may not be able to handle something considerably smaller without getting into an accident. Suburban neighborhoods are plagued with tailgating road warriors in consumer tanks that endanger people for the sake of having an adventure on the road. The aesthetics of a truck are as much a problem as the drivers operating them.
- jrsj 5y agoIn my experience suburbanites in large SUVs are much more reckless than pickup drivers I encounter. Obviously an anecdote but they tend to be far more oblivious to their surroundings.
- DHPersonal 5y agoVery good point and a sign that I’m prejudiced against trucks. There are bad drivers in every category and it’s unfair for me to target only one group.
