    I have no idea why this is fun for people. I have one of those giant trucks for pulling my horse trailer. The truck is so fucking hard drive around in traffic. I hate having to commute in it. It is impossible to park at the store. I would never own it if I didn’t have to.

      I’ve seen it discussed before and worked with one guy who had a bro dozer. It’s all about image. They complain about high gas prices and expensive repairs, but make any suggestions about downsizing their truck and all of a sudden they defend the truck as a way of life or say the noise is “raw power” or talk about how they’ll someday tow something with it to see what it can do.

      They put up with the difficulties in order to look cool.
