Driving a bigger....more powerfull vehicle is a lot of things, and comes with the resposibility to be considerate and alert. last week I was faced with braking on fresh snow, with glare ice, my choice was the quickly closing rearbumper of someone ahead, or the ditch, I aimed at the ditch, which the responding RCMP commented "and you hit it" ha ha truck stayed upright, and survived the ditching and subsequent recovery, with zero damage, in spite of ending up high sided on the frame. my personal preference is vehicles, are do everything truckasauruses, I loath running empty and light, its stock its cool, and fun, usefull, dependable, makes people look, easy to work on but I get grief, because so many of these are exclusivly used a symbols rather than for work my last truck got rear ended while stopped for traffic by a 1ton cube van, that was going full highway speed, lawsuits, and trouble is still falling out from that, but as I was in a w250 long wheelbase diesel(heavy, tough), I am more or less ok.....they cut him out of his truck....alive .....but so my point or question is, where do you draw the line? or how? there is millions of tons of random stuff, going where it needs to go, right now, and forever, in "light trucks", and many millions of people in those trucks as well, getting stuff done, sometimes its a bloated show truck, othertimes its just a working war waggon cant realy tell them apart at 100 feet
