Pickup Truck Guy: A Brief Psychoanalysis

Dudes who drive pickup trucks: easy to dunk on, but there is A LOT more going on here ---- some of it hilarious, some of it disturbing. But, strangely, in reviewing the comments on my most recent video on this topic, maybe slightly encouraging? Let's explore the mindset of pickup truck guy.

One comment he addresses (verbatim):

as a motorcycle driver I hate pickups because other reason - their drivers are with less intellectual capabilities - their cars are very fast because of their huge engines and the fact they drive empty without cargo. I don't wanna die from a stupid person.

I’ve heard large pickup truck being described as gender affirming care and I can’t stop thinking about that

My favorite description of the clean, shiny, never-hauled-anything, luxury pickup is "Parking Lot Princess."

Comment:

Pickup trucks are basically luxury vehicles now. I remember working at Home Depot and loading an appliance into the back of some lady's truck, and she was terrified we would scratch the truck bed. Lady it IS A TRUCK.

It typically costs about $500 to get a tow hitch and electrical harness installed on any car. Thereafter it’s about $20 a day to rent a covered or flatbed trailer. It’s rare to actually have a use case for owning a pickup outside of agriculture. Especially compared to use case for a transit van.
