Unnecessarily big trucks at unnecessarily high prices :C
Unnecessarily big trucks? I guess you can vouch for everyone as to what size truck they need? Simple supply and demand and the supply will increase while demand drops. Always happened before, and will again. With the direction the economy is going overall, they'll be begging for buyers within a year. The brakes are being applied to construction as I type including anything to do with building anything back better, and that is what drives sales of unnecessarily big trucks, not the RV crowd which is a miniscule percentage of overall sales.
No, I can't decide what size truck everyone needs, however, the 'full size' truck of 10-15 years ago wasn't near the behemoth that 'full size' trucks are today.
That being said, I don't see where truck buyer's needs have changed so much that an appreciably larger truck is necessary.
That, added to the fact that if you're going to buy a huge truck, learn to park it properly in a parking lot, and be sure anyone else driving it (such as a spouse) has the same ability to park it properly.
This concludes my dissertation on why I referred to the new truck offerings as 'unnecessarily big'. Your opinion may, and probably does, vary :C
