Actually the automakers have been screwing people into thinking that they need big expensive trucks for years. Then guys try to drive them like race cars, or give them to their wives who don't know how to handle them, or just plain think that they are invincible and can do anything because they are in a truck. Trucks are also NOT life insurance. That is a big fallacy. There was a report on the news just last week saying that people who get into accidents in trucks get just as injured and dead as people in cars.
