Topic: Truck "demographics"

[rrocket]

Wow, I'm actually quite surprised at some of the hatred and stereotypical posts from some here regarding truck owners.  A little disappointed TBH.   

Meh...some people are going by experience.  Hard to fault that.

Here, where I live, my experience goes like this.

1) Stock truck owners:  Mostly normal...occasional ass-hat driving because they are in an indestructible tank.  The pinnacle of their stupidity, if any, is in winter where they continue to use all season tires, yet still drive like it's dry because 4X4.  But mostly normal drivers...like anyone in a car.

2) Lightly modded, slightly lifted: Occasional idiot, but still mostly normal vehicle owners.

3) Highly modded, high lift, rolling coal:  High tendency for douchebaggery.

Most truck drivers are normal, most cyclists are law obeying, most motorcyclists following the flow of traffic, most Camry drivers are competent.

Come to Toronto. Your views will change.

So... Toronto's the problem? 

Yes, it is.  Easily the worst drivers I've seen in Ontario.  But even more frightening to see is the total deathwish the cyclists seem to have.  I have been to many cities in the US and here....but GTA takes the cake for suicidal cyclists.

It is not a deathwish rr. Cyclists in TO have been led to believe , by generations of municipal politicians, that they are entitled to ride like crazy people and if any street has parking then that must be replaced with a cycle lane etc etc.
Recently on the local new some cyclists were complaining loudly that the bike lanes were not cleared of snow properly where there was a cross street! Would you believe cars were actually allowed to drag some snow and slush onto the bike lane  and there would be no city employee there to remove it immediately.      I am not joking, this was an item on City TV news last week.

Not talking about the truck.  Talking about someone that would put a "whores" sticker on their vehicle.  Just the fact that you'd put that on your car/truck/min-van/scooter/whatever makes you a first-grade loser a$$hole.

Or just an immature kid that thought it was funny...

How many people here thought it was funny 

Too many people still think you can treat women like things

I don't mind it, in traffic if they have that sort of sticker I never have to wonder if they are possibly an a$$hole, they are advertising it and I know what to expect.

I’m never living in Toronto...omg I can’t tolerate this kind of liberal bs.
