The European mind cannot comprehend a giant truck on the six lane freeway flying confederate and American flags side by side with “JESUS IS LORD. DEAL WITH IT SNOWFLAKES” written on the back with a small sticker in the corner that says “how’s my driving? Call 1-800-TRUCK”
To actually answer your question, I think it’s a virtue signalling thing. Truck drivers tend to have their ego tied up in their truck and see it as an extension of themselves instead of a vehicle to go from point A to point B.
Considering how much time they spend in them, I think it would be hard not to feel this way. I feel like I’d be picking up hitchhikers just so I had someone to talk to.
Same! I always try to imagine what was going through the driver’s mind when they apply stuff like this.

Yeah. It’s almost like their second house or something.
