I still don't get it--I saw it a lot in the military... huge trucks on huge raised wheels, the family stuffed into the back, stopping at the gas station asking for $5 worth of gas (you just knew their last cent was going towards that truck). I also remember my 5'0" best friend getting a truck-- sometimes I think small people like them to finally give them a sense of power. I'm sure that desire carries over psychologically too. Hopefully and presumably the people next door can afford their huge vehicles =) It's still silly though!
