No it's someone who makes chocolate

That's true, things can be even worse.

The tilde symbols you used are ~messing up the formatting~ on jerboa.

Just thought you might like to know.

Capitalist problems require capitalist solutions (aka make them pay for being cunt / key their shit)

Where I live, if the vehicle doesn't fit inside the lines, it's illegally parked. Even if it's the mirrors/bumper/hitch.

I don't know what the laws are like in the UK, but I would be surprised, if it did not. Governments don't build wide footpaths for the fun of it. They exist to allow parents with prams/strollers as well as folks in wheelchairs to pass. When someone blocks the path, no matter the acrobatics they undertake to not actually have wheels on the path, that still makes the path unusable for its intended purpose.

This is the UK, there are no regulations regarding parking on or blocking the pavement except in areas where it is specifically posted on signs (which are not super common). You could possibly use a different infraction if they were over the path and parkeds on zig zags for example but they'd be issuing for the zig zags and not the pavement.

It also looks like a supermarket car park which is private property therefore any of the rules based around parking dont really apply, only what they deem necessary to display and enforce. They only usually make any money from camera controlled entrance and exits enforcing maximum stays so that is all they'd ever enforce.

There is also no law regarding keeping the toe hitch attached to your car regardless of use or intent to use.

Steal the hitch, OP. Remove it and throw it in that bin right there.

get a cow catcher attached to the front and just flip that fucker at high speed

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.

It’s vestigial. It’s not meant to be used. It’s entirely so it looks truck-shaped to satisfy a user who has no need for an actual truck. In someways, I’m a fan of the design because at least it’s admitting that you don’t need to own a truck in a tiny way, but in that case, just have a reasonable vehicle.

I have discussed this with a friend of mine and have come to the conclusion there is only 2 cases these kind of trucks are needed, and even then i only accept one as valid. All the rest can be solved with a regular, european, work van like a fort transit or mercedes sprinter.
The cases?
Farmers that need to get heavy shit off and on the field quickly if they dont have a regular traktor ( which they do, but it might be malfunctioning ) and when you are handling a hot air balloon.
Thats it.
The rest work better with vans or trailers or both together...

They're pretty shitty for most tradesmen who only need to carry tools. The beds are so high and deep it's annoying to lift toolboxes in and out. A van with a roof rack is way more useful.
