That is true. All those truck commercials are geared for the blue-collar hard-working man! YOU GET TO PUT YOUR EQUIPMENT, YOUR PRODUCE, YOUR GRAVEL, YOUR WHATEVER IN THE TRUCK-BED TO HAUL AROUND!!!! but in reality, most of these trucks are just empty in the back - never used for anything. most americans buy these trucks because they think its cool to drive a truck. that it is their equivalent to riding a horse and makes them feel that much more like a cowboy. it is like an identity for them, it is AMERICAN to drive a truck. man, people can be silly...
