I think your explination of big trucks, and sleepers is just an excuse to why you dont have a truck. Not everyone with nice things is trying to impress someone.
What you have done is tried to make a stereotype assumption and make it real. I bet you think all blacks are thieves too. right
all BMW drivers are also stuck up rich bastards too, right.
I drive my M3 once, maybe twice a year- but I go to look at it atleast once a week- why? because its mine and i dont need others to see it
some people like things to be completely nice, while other like only parts of it to be nice. what is the real purpose behind having a classic car that is fast as hell and looks like crap, for christ sake its a 35 year old car-- who drives them around except for hot-rod fast guys.

like i had said, I didnt have a chance to fully explain the situation, and I bet you don't live in southern Cali either, thats where my "research" information came from. But hey, I dont drive a truck because there is no need to get 6mpg in trade for 44" mudders and 6 too many fox or king shocks on the rear axle on a 2500hd or an f450 , Oh BTW, I'm also anti ICE, that shit belongs on a shelf in the entertainment room of your house, not on the road where we have to pay attention to all the other crazy drivers on cell phones instead of "busting the touch screen to play PS3 and bump some mp3's and check your e-mail on the 405...

Some trucks can get very decent MPG, we have a Toyota Hilux SSR-G Surf edition all "jacked up" like you say with 36" wheels with a 10" lift, but we actually use it for 4x4ing and going up mountains to go snowboarding/skiing. and its diesel and reasonable MPG. So thats just another sterotype..
Heres a photo of it:
and to compare it to another car, heres it beside a 91 skyline r32 gtr
This is what rolls around out here....Thats reasearch...
You should se the shit out by my house in Azuza Canyon Area ( off road playground )
You DO realize that those are full-time STREET trucks right? Those are not off-roading trucks.
Those are 100% built for flash and the only people that would actually drive them are people that NEED attention. Normal people would not WANT that extra attention.

Thats what I was saying all along... I see soccer moms karting the kids in these things ( any guys I see driving these things are like 5'4" standing on the curb, Napoleon..They bulid these trucks to drive on the streets, but, sell in an off road area for the ability to sell the product. they are overkill to the nth degree.
