Those rigs have huge towing capacities, so if you’re towing a 4T boat or 5th wheeler, they are pretty much your only option. Basically useless for 4x4 though with their huge wheelbase, and there’s no denying that a lot of them are bought just to drive around the suburbs and feel like a big man.

Don't all new vehicles come with cameras all over the place and swanky top down backup camera views and whatnot these days? Might as well complain about the rising belt line of sedans that makes seeing anything as short as a recycle bin out the back impossible that happened in the 2000s. That actually was a problem, no cameras back then.

People strapped for cash are selling 90s trucks and others right now. Many are asking a lot but the market has been getting saturated the past few months. If you are buying, be patient, find one you like, and pay cash if you have the capital and a use for one. If you are selling, either have something really good that sticks out or wait until market conditions are better to sell

"Men" that complain about the size of people's vehicles simply have a tiny, tiny penis is all.
Really, what conveys smaller dick energy than trying to judge another man for something he owns? You might as well invert that dick into a tranny pussy at that point if you ask me, because you're sounding like a dickless woman now anyway.
It's like incels that say "oh I don't like made-up Barbie-doll whores, I want a natural girl" Of course you want the bombshell whore, everyone does, the problem is you might find out when you go to fuck her you're not actually man enough to do it, you literally don't possess the balls and that's the reason for your opinion, not your actual tastes
That's what people that complain about pickups are like, looking at one makes them realize how small their penis is and how shriveled their balls are. They have no way to deal with their feelings of self-inadequacy, so instead they project them onto the men that have the potency they require.

No. They are overpriced garbage. Unless you are towing 10,000lb for work, a used German SUV will be half the price, twice the gas mileage and tow 7000lb like it's not even there.

Thousands of people a year end up in the hospital with foreign objects lodged in the rectum. This is due to poor sex education; the problem is easily solved if you know to only use sex toys with a sufficiently flared base anally. Many people (this includes straight women not just gay men) also get permanent accumulated damage from thinking anal sex in porn is realistic, going too rough insufficient preparation/lube etc. Normalizing buttfucking ignorance is what is detrimental to society and the human anus, having it taught in school is a good investment for medical reasons.
