This is the problem with downvoting.



It's because I am one of the founders of the #blacklivesmatter movement. Everybody hates me on here

here in the south trucks are the norm. of course some one from new jersey would feel differently about professionals in trucks.

ask him how he feels about professionals with Challengers with the hemi and performance exhausts, or the new Camaro SS

We both just got promoted to production management roles, but I am interested in hearing your definition of professional.

Ahh....


Now I don't realize why I'm getting downvoted...is it because I didn't know why you got downvoted or because everybody hates me on here and my stellar observations?

Brah, you can't let the downvotes bother you. Most people downvote because you are being yourself and go against the majority group think that happens on here.

My girlfriends brother thinks I'm an asshat because I drive a truck. He's from Dallas, but went to school at Harvard and hasn't left the area for about the last 6-7 years. He literally told my girlfriend after he met me that he was worried that I was immature because 'professionals don't have big aggressive looking tires'.

Oh, don't get me wrong I don't care about being downvoted, I just like it as a metric on trends in what people are thinking about.


And then you get a time where it goes against the trend or it's difficult to interpret then it's something to talk about.

I can somewhat understand...but not in trucks vs cars.

My daily driver is not appropriate for my position, but I like being able to jump shite and cross medians. And I can cross a concrete divider in emergencies.

The vehicles parked next to me are three f150s and a gx460L.

What do you have? Because I don't believe this. Max Lexus SUV towing capacity for 2015 is the LX570 at 7,000. The 2015 F150 is over 12,000.
