Wow, it costs alot of money to be an idiot. You can get a truck that is equally, if not more functional for 10 grand. You could even super splurge and get one for 30k that is even incredibly similar on the non-functional stuff too. There are much better things to spend the 100k remaining than the difference between a 30k truck and a 130k truck.
I grew up on a tobacco farm, shit ton of manual labor, and the extended families all helped each other
A cousin had a jacked up truck (obviously we're all hillbillies).
But he lifted it so much, it couldn't hitch to a trailer, and only one of the wagons. He took a functional truck and made it almost impossible to actually use it for anything.
I've been shitting on all the idiots driving lifted trucks ever since. I have zero idea why so many guys live in cities and work desk jobs but drive a giant truck for their commute. And there is an insane amount of them at my current job.
My point is, even in rural areas this shit is completely useless. The only reason anyone buys them is they're insecure in their own masculinity. They need a big truck to feel like a big boy
Those idiots also drove the price up for those of us who need them for what they're meant for...work.
Weird how not a single contractor, farmer or labourer in any other countries need them huh? They're not made for work.
Drive up to a building site in one of those and be prepared for someone to spray a massive cock n balls on it with expanding foam
weird how they use semis/lorries usually for large equipment, when here in the usa we haul most of our own equipment. A hilux is not hauling a 12k lb skid steer, or even a small dozer, or 20 1k lb round bales of hay. Most builders haul most of their shit with them. Weird how you don't know what you're talking about.
Read - builders can't afford the equipment they need because they got tricked into spending 100k on a tiny-penis-compensation truck lol
No builder is buying a 100k truck... you're not even making any sense, stay in your lane on your tiny island and keep thinking how your little world works the same everywhere.
They actually have them on the massive continent where I live, well, just a few.
People put stickers on the back of them saying "fuck your environment, I'm compensating for my micropenis" 😂
Cool I hope those people like to eat.
They do, they're just not fat

Ok...sure.
