As I noted before, the data would indicate that only about a quarter of pickup truck owners use them for "truck stuff", the rest are doing it as an overpriced fashion statement or to covey some "rugged/manly" image. (and that was cited by pro-Truck publication)
But you're right in that if someone can actually afford one, and wants to get one, by all means go for it...as long as they don't whine about the gas prices and vandalize all the gas station pumps with these stickers, have fun
But people should be aware when buying one, that contrary to what the snarky bumper sticker says about "this truck runs on liberal tears", they in fact run on gasoline, about $90 worth of it each fill-up. So they should plan accordingly. If an increase of $0.20 per gallon is ruining their life, then perhaps they bought a vehicle that's out of their league, financially speaking.
