    I don’t know what happened, but since around 2015 few things have identified an insufferable dickbag faster than a raised truck.

      Every time a raised truck drives like a maniac on the highway, every time the driver speeds, cuts people off, and blows diesel exhaust all over everyone, you just have to remember that he is in a huge hurry to get home and kiss his dad straight on the mouth. Yes, with plenty of tongue action, too.

      That poor husky white guy with a big bushy beard and Oakley sunglasses is in such a rush out of genuine excitement. “I just got this new cherry chapstick on and Daddy is gonna want a taste! I just can’t wait to have his moistened lips on mine!”

      It’s sweet, really, when you think about it.

        Honestly I used to, still do but try not to, get so annoyed and pissed off with people speeding like crazy, tailgating or just overall driving like a menace.

        One of the ways I try to keep my temper cool is pretending whoever is driving like that has really bad diarrhea and is about to shit their pants. Then I’m just like “hope you make it to the toilet!” Instead of focusing on the fact that they’re looking down at their phone and literally have no visibility to the road their driving on.

        It’s like people forget cars are heavy AF machines that can easily kill or maim others. Driving is the most dangerous thing most of us will do and folks treat it like it’s nothing. It’s scary.

          I so the exact same thing. I always say to my kids “that guy must really have to poop.” Makes me feel better about an otherwise crazy world.

          I saw a video recently of a family that spent $50k on a truck and claimed to be an average working American family.

          no ma’am. average working families buy a $2000 truck and drive it for a week before it breaks down. they then JB Weld it together with wire coat hangers and hope then drive it for another three months.

          average working American families can’t afford groceries, they will not even be allowed to apply for a $50k car loan.

          I knew a guy who totalled one and took out a loan to pay for a new one while working retail.

          Since he also came to work high on the reg I sure hope he was dealing.

      I visited Texas and saw a dealership specifically for raised trucks. Mind boggling.
