It's pretty funny how much truck rage there is here.

  It’s crazy to me. If you hate automobiles, trucks still make the most sense- if you’re just carrying people and a grocery or two you should probably be on a bike or ebike.

    That is quite a European take there. Most places in the US do not have safe pedestrian infrastructure mandating "share the road" policies with bicycles which puts you into direct contact with motor vehicle traffic, and suburban spread means you're probably not close enough to walk to your grocer.

      Bikes and cars can easily coexist on streets, and if the street is too big/busy I bet there's a parallel side road that is much better. If you are too lazy to walk to your nearest grocer, ride a bike. It is true that some sacrifices and brief periods of discomfort must be made if you care for the environment, this is nothing new and generally accepted.
