MODERATORS
Sports cars sure, but sedans? Buuuuullshit.
Why not?
Are you serious, people complain about oversized SUVs all the time. Please.
You've now reached the tone of desperate justification that people with oversized vehicles always fall back to.
It’s my truck and I shouldn’t have to haul things in it 24/7 to justify its use to you.
If you don't think you should have to justify it's use, then why have you made all these comments attempting to do just that?
Hahahaha this is literally every conversation with a truck/suv owner
Oh you have me mistaken. I’m not justifying my use of my truck to you guys. I’m simply informing y’all that despite what you believe, trucks are needed. I do believe that lift kits shouldn’t be a thing, they compromise the truck. But not everyone out here that owns a truck is an asshole.
People are wondering why I need a truck and it’s simple, I wouldn’t be able to do my job without one. But people in these threads often forget that and think “hurr durr trucks should be banned.”
Please lmao
