In London, England, where the roads are narrow, the parking spaces are limited and we have plenty of availability of vans that can actually fit things in, we still get these a*holes with their unnecessary large pick up trucks made for a road system completely different to ours…
These spaces are wider than usual and long enough to fit them but they still have to park like w*nkers blocking the only footpath around!
I mean, I have a 5 door hatchback and know that my car overhangs the back wheels, as does any primary school kid drawing a car…
I don’t see why pickups are suddenly appearing in England lately, they’re so ugly.
If i could, for once, see one of those huge oversized pickup trucks in city streets loaded up to the brim with stuff in the back bed. But no. Those behemoths drive around just as they came out of shop: empty.
Obviously it’s only to give self-inducted sense of importance to the driver if they move around in huge tank, sitting above everyone and sticking out on the parkinglot as biggest of all. As others said, overcompensating for various head-issues.
It’s for attention. Some kids will do anything for attention, good or bad. Then they grow up and buy ridiculous vehicles to get that same rush they got when they were 7 and shat themselves at their friend’s birthday party.
Likely a great way to overcompensate or something.
There are wankers everywhere and it doesn’t take that many wankers as a proportion of the population to screw things up for everybody else.
It’s almost like people want these things…
Making up arguments to win?
I have heard this literal argument on /fuckcars in the past. Merely parroting the community.
They want them as emotional support vehicles. I feel there are better choices for that kind of mental help tbh.
People want a lot of things. Doesn’t make them good, beneficial to society, or anything else.
