    I see very little hauling, TONS of trucks in the city, and trucks parked at people’s office job. It’s kind of painfully obvious.

      I thought today was the day somebody might have an ounce of data instead of regurgitating retarded observations with biases and not a metric in sight. Not today I guess.

          Bingo

          In a study conducted by Axios

          Unpublished leading with the same mutually non exclusive question, no methodology, and no published stats.

          Bravo for bringing this full circle exactly back to where I stated it would lead us. I honestly couldn’t have done it better. But you really played your part. You went and googled what you wanted to find and linked a secondary source without reading a damn thing or caring what you linked to. 👏👏👏👏👏 bravo.

            So what do people actually like about trucks? According to Edwards, the answer is counterintuitive. Truck drivers use their trucks very much like other car owners: for commuting to and from work, presumably alone.

            Alexander Edwards president of automotive research and consulting firm Strategic Vision, which conducts an in-depth, annual, 250,000-person, psychographic new vehicle owners’ survey. “

            The study itself is sadly proprietary but it is in line with what you can see all around you on your commute and in your works parking lot. Commuters commuting in their truck.

              Naw, I can look out my window and seeing trucks well used all day. Thank you again for proving my point so well. Accidentally linking back to the report I initially bitched at then hand waving it away with personal stories is 👨‍🍳😚

                Do you have any contrary evidence that is non proprietary all I could find were proprietary reports and reporting on them that agreed with me. On the other side of the coin is you yelling angrily which is… not an argument
