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…
If i could, for once, see one of those huge oversized pickup trucks in city streets loaded up to the brim with stuff in the back bed. But no. Those behemoths drive around just as they came out of shop: empty.
Obviously it’s only to give self-inducted sense of importance to the driver if they move around in huge tank, sitting above everyone and sticking out on the parkinglot as biggest of all. As others said, overcompensating for various head-issues.
