So you find some who are continually self promoting. Its an effort to
compensate. Sorta like the little guys in the really B I G trucks.

Few long haul truckers pick the size of their truck. Mostly, they are
as big as the law allows. Maximum payload for the labor costs.
Best use of the fuel. This is mostly not true in town, although
gasoline delivery and garbage trucks come in large sizes. A glance at
the lunch counter at an Interstate truck stop will reveal that drivers
come in all the usual sizes. The biggest common compensation truck
would be the one ton pickup with the dual rear tires. There are many
who drive a pickup because cars have turned into tiny ****boxes, not
as a penis substitute. Corvettes on the other hand... The price of gas
will cause a reverse trend. We have a 14 mpg street tank SUV and we
just bought a 28 mpg ****box. Used, 10k miles, seven grand.
