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
