I think the number of large trucks on the road is very dependent on location. I'm in the Deep South, and they are everywhere. I'm actually one of only two people at my job who don't have a giant truck. The other is my boss. Coincidentally, we are also the only two women who work here. She's got an older minivan, and my car is 15 years old. Oh wait, one guy drives his girlfriend's Jeep. I forgot about him.
