What explains the abundance of trucks that I see here in suburbia? Or in places like the Bay Area, where there's never, ever any snow.

- honkdaddy 5y agoI'm not sure, I've never lived in the Bay Area.
- hunterb123 5y agoOutdoor activities? Labor jobs? I don't think you can judge without knowing their lifestyle. Even then, who is to say who can get what? I don't see why trucks are one of things people can't buy just because they prefer it. I'm sure everyone owns something that another person would consider frivolous.
- triceratops 5y ago> I don't see why trucks are one of things people can't buy just because they prefer it. I was responding to GP who said trucks are necessary in rural areas with snow and rough roads. Obviously people can buy what they want, and other people can judge them for their choices as they want. > I'm sure everyone owns something that another person would consider frivolous. Definitely. I'm sure there are people who judge my purchases - I wish them well. But most frivolous purchases don't kill pedestrians at alarming rates, or guzzle absurd amounts of gas pointlessly. Pickup trucks are the pit bulls of car ownership.
