Must be where you live.  Around here people actually use their trucks.  You know, they haul,
pull, etc. in them.  My wife has a 4x4 because she drives 25 miles to work (one way) on a dirt
road -- not gravel, dirt.  That means deep mud when it's wet.  Most of my neighbors are either
ranchers or farmers, and they use their pickups as trucks, not Barbie fashion statements.  Like
I say, it must be where you live that makes you so arrogant about what other people drive.
