It's fine to like them but if they're being daily driven then it's an unjustified source of excess C02 and overall emissions. Modern cars are significantly more efficient and clean than modern trucks. There's no need.
Do you feel the same if it was an Audi R8?
but an R8 is better than a truck in every single way except payload or towing (which the subject of tortoise's gripe are not doing anyway) - and has the added benefit of enriching fellow drivers' day as well with its beauty and soundtrack as it drives along...a truck is just a big loud brick that blocks all lines of sight, sticks into intersections, etc.
But hey, if you are using your truck for truck stuff - good on ya. You are a manly man doing manly things.
