In London, England, where the roads are narrow, the parking spaces are limited and we have plenty of availability of vans that can actually fit things in, we still get these a*holes with their unnecessary large pick up trucks made for a road system completely different to ours…

These spaces are wider than usual and long enough to fit them but they still have to park like w*nkers blocking the only footpath around!

I mean, I have a 5 door hatchback and know that my car overhangs the back wheels, as does any primary school kid drawing a car…

    I don’t see why pickups are suddenly appearing in England lately, they’re so ugly.

      Likely a great way to overcompensate or something.

      It’s for attention. Some kids will do anything for attention, good or bad. Then they grow up and buy ridiculous vehicles to get that same rush they got when they were 7 and shat themselves at their friend’s birthday party.

      It’s almost like people want these things…

      No, someone must be forcing them to buy these awful trucks! It’s a conspiracy I tell ya!

        They want them as emotional support vehicles. I feel there are better choices for that kind of mental help tbh.
