So here's a few questions for all you people around here that constantly insert flippant remarks about people that drive trucks or "gas guzzling SUVs":
1. Who do you call when you need help moving?
2. Who do you call when you've made a large purchase and need help bringing it home?
3. How do you think tradesmen move their tools around the city and bring them to your house to fix whatever thing it is that's broken?
4. What do you think of your beloved hockey heros that drive big trucks "for no reason"?
5. Why do you assume that because it's clean and empty that it's always clean and empty?
6. Are you aware that the V8 in your grandpa's Crown Victoria is just as bad on gas as the V6 in my truck?
7. Do you still hate me after I pull over and drag your car over the snow hump that the city grader left on your side street?
8. Do you realize that for most people it's not feasible to own the necessary pickup truck plus a Prius to boot around town in when not hauling things?
9. Have you ever owned a pickup truck and discovered all their uses?
10. Did your redneck, pickup-driving father beat you as a child?

The only thing that I find odd is when the driver of (for example) a Chevy Silverado has the "Calvin peeing on Dodge logo" sticker. It's odd to understand why there would be such animosity from one pickup truck driver to another brand. I generally only see these stickers on pickup trucks.

Not true. I've got a '85 Civic. When I see a mofo running around in a POS 80's Tercel I try to run him off the road.
1. Who do you call when you need help moving?
Moving company.. duh.
2. Who do you call when you've made a large purchase and need help bringing it home?
They deliver now.
3. How do you think tradesmen move their tools around the city and bring them to your house to fix whatever thing it is that's broken?
Vans..
Other questions are irrelevant.
Seriously though.. I have no problem with 4x4, trucks, SUV's, etc. And right now, over the lifetime.. I think a Prius and other "green" vehicles are more environmentally damaging than your 4x4.
So.. I still love yah bud (non homo).

Problem is you gotta book time off and wait and hope they show up on time. I'd rather pick it up myself and not have to worry about some dumb schumk damaging the stuff I bought
Pickup trucks are hilarious. When I lived in NZ, they didn't even exist. I didn't see one pickup truck while I was in Auckland, after living there for more than 5 months. So, in fact, society won't fall apart without pickup trucks.

A truck is only complete if it has a pair of rubber testicles hanging off the trailor hitch.
