Anyone with a truck carrying giant flags. If you are in the US, you know what I mean.
They’re in Canada, too.
Not one of our best exports
We breed our own here, too, unfortunately
I’m conflicted by this because the other day, I saw one of these with LGBTQ+ flags and not the typical American, Mexican, Rattlesnake or Trump 2024 flags.
Still, it was on a giant truck clearly not for working on a farm or hauling anything but ass and those giant flags are obnoxious no matter what they are signalling.
Anyone with a truck that doesn’t own a farm or is a contractor.

Lifted trucks. My assurance goes up 10x if they have rims and tires meant for the road.
Lifted Dodge Ram. They are more likely to be drunk too.
Welcome to my new segment, You Might Want to Know?
Dodge and Ram are two different brands and product lines. Rams are the trucks, and Dodge makes muscle vehicles.
But as to your point, you’re more right than you possibly know!
Knowledge is knowing that Ram is now itcs own brand. Wisdom is knowing only nerds who use federated social media would care. Understanding is appreciating all new content people provide.
Extra points if the have wheel spacers
truck nutz. like. not new (which might be a gag. I did zip tie some onto a friends car once. But, uh, it was a prius, and they were dragging on the gorund.)
100x if it’s squat… Squated?
It’s so dumb like Fucking whhhyyyy
My friend and I bought trucks around the same time. Mine is a simple tradesman Ram, no bells and whistles, primarily for moving and hauling stuff that can’t fit in my wife’s sedan.
I’m a pretty passive driver. Live and let live, y’know?
My friend had a similar personality when he first got his Tundra (of course with all the extras he can afford). Then he goes and spends $10,000 on a lift, winch, and floodlights. Now he’s like a different person. He drives super aggressively, whipping round corners, weaving through traffic going 20mph over on the highway. He was driving me through some quiet neighborhood the other day and nearly mowed over a cyclist. I asked him what the hell he was doing and he shrugged and said “if she’s gonna ride a bike in the street, she’s gotta look out for trucks. Not my fault if she doesn’t see me”
TL;DR - truck drivers are fine, a truck is a tool like any other vehicle. Lifting your truck turns you into a redneck scumbag overnight though apparently.
(EU) SUVs. Are you insecure and too stupid to drive? GET A CAR 20% larger in every dimension so you can piss off the whole world with your incompetence.
Or do you have a genuine reason that makes them advantageous?
I have an SUV because:
- my mother in law has mobility issues and struggles to get in/out of a saloon.
- my wife has neck issues and the higher driving position is better for her
- I like it (ok, that could make me an arsehole)
Truth is that mine (BMW X1) is at most 5cm bigger in any dimension, if at all, than the car on which it is based (Mini Cooper). The extra size is an optical illusion.
Well then just block all roads and murder people while you are at it. A ok.
Did you read my post?
Would it be correct to sum up your post as: my family is so handicapped they can only drives SUVs, i am an asshole and need to talk about my COMPACT SUV because people in my life do not talk about it enough?
That’s similar to why I hav an SUV. My dad has mobility issues and has a scooter to help him get around. The SUV is higher off the ground making it easier to get in and out while the larger cargo space can hold the scooter and anything else (groceries, luggage, etc).
Also - the mass and form of an SUV makes them a good option in terms of safety. Smaller vehicles get crunched like pop cans, and trucks get sandwiched by their own bed if you hit a solid object.
Making yourself safer by making everyone else less safe still seems like an asshole move to me?
Bumper height should have been regulated on city roads, then we wouldn’t have gotten this escalation. Work truck, sure. If you need one, you need one. But people who drive a massive gas guzzler to park it at the office and go up the elevator to work?
Actually no. SUVs are great at murdering the drivers of other cars, they do not in fact protect you any better. Its just a big blow up dick for assholes.
Tesla’s have become the new BMW drivers from my experience as of late.
Strangely… I don’t think it’s the fault of the driver (well, they still picked the car)… The lane assist FSD autobraking is all fucking awful.
Next time you see one get in front of it about 100 yards ahead and tap the brakes… Don’t brake, just flash the tail lights… The Tesla will slow down every time.
They’re terrible cars for terrible people I guess.

Well… Yes… The other self driving systems have fixed those problems already.
Next time pick a manufacturer that cares about it’s developers.
How would you even be able to tell how much they care about their developers, unless they make the new for bad working conditions? Not defending tesla, just not sure if any manufacturer actually cares about their developers.
Edit: Tesla sucks, but Musk is also really bad at staying out of the news. Every corporation is driven by profit, and most billionaires are better at hiding scandals than Elon Musk.
Lifted truck rolling coal is 100% an asshole.
- Teslas
- Really large trucks that are clearly not being used for actual work
- BMWs
- Lexuses
- Shitty little ricers that aren’t fast, they’re just obnoxiously loud
- Anyone with a rented box truck (like a UHaul) driving in the far left lane of the freeway.
- Cop cars
I’m surprised to see Lexus on that list.

Any truck but Dodge Ram in particular.
Ram trucks are the official vehicle of domestic abuse.
Tesla.
Tesla model 3 to be exact.
The iPhone of the car world.
Anything with truck nuts attached
Hold up. Truck nuts on a Prius or PT Cruiser is fucking hilarious
For giggles I kinda want to put them on my minivan.
For a minivan, hilarious.
Ram Trucks. according to research, these vehicles are the most likely to be driven, and wrecked, by a drunk driver. People who instinctively idolize an animal that solves it’s problems by smashing them with it’s face… probably not the best people to drive near.
Living in Australia where US trucks really don’t go on our roads well, I can attest to Ram drivers being the most dreadful drivers here. As we’ve come to call it, Emotional Support Vehicles.
Among Truck drivers, Rams are usually the objectively worst vehicle for doing trucking activities on a per yearly model basis. So it kinda makes sense the dumbest people with trucks aren’t the ones who know anything about truck capabilities either.
It’s got nothing to do with any weird animal symbolism bro. Thing is, dodge will finance absolutely anybody. And dodge makes a fun vehicle until it breaks down.
do rams break down alot? because my father daily drove one for like 20 years without it breaking down
It’s like 50/50 lol. My brother has a 20+year old Ram, no problems. My Ram went tits up after 4 years. But my Charger ran like a champ until I sold it. If I’m ever in the situation where I can justify a fast car again, it will definitely be a another hemi. As far a trucks go tho, I’m a die hard GM fan these days.
Teslas, Pickup trucks, SUVs
I drive a Tesla. I guess I’m an asshole for trying to pollute my immediate surroundings less.
If you want to pollute less, then ride a bicycle.
On that topic, someone have a comfy seat recommendation for penis bearers? I sit on my seat for 2 minutes and things start going numb that shouldn’t go numb unless it’s playtime with my wife.
Get a saddle with a cut out and go faster. More pressure on the pedals means less on you backside.
Strangely a saddle that appears more uncomfortable is usually more comfortable. All you want is to support you tail bones and nothing else. If it is applying pressure elsewhere, you will get discomfort.
Personally, I use Fizik saddles. They are not cheap, but they are amazing.
Thanks! I’ll look into them.
Im old fashioned but i still think only dicks drive bmw’s
I’m only up voting you for your user name.
NL here: Imported American trucks. You do not need a car that costs €5000/month in fuel alone that you cannot use practically in any way that a van, a regular car or even a bakfiets could do more cost-effectively. The only people who go through the effort to get such a vehicle are compensating for something, and a Dodge Ram in The Netherlands is only useful for dick measuring, and the most significant thing it’ll ever move is the owner’s fragile ego.
We look at those people the same in the US too tbf lol
In NL they have a lot less legitimity, there are no mountains, no huge private farms, no vast plains with subpar roads.
BMW. Eveytime. No blinker use either.
The BMW drivers have chilled out a little… It’s the audi driver these days that are complete tools.
This. Audi is the new BMW.
