Honestly this is absurd. These death machines shouldn’t be legal in europe. That thing doesn’t even fit in the parking space, even though the parking lot has the biggest spaces in the whole city. The Golf Polo is so small in comparison, it could even hide in front of the engine hood of the truck.

EDIT: It’s a Polo and not a Golf, I don’t know my cars, sorry for that!

Dick size is not the issue, let’s not make a genetically determined physical trait something to shame people over, when people who drive such massive vehicles have actual things we can criticise them for!

I know it’s a joke, but idk not an inventive or funny one imo.

True, but what else can you do, especially on a forum (where the overcompensating/insecure truck driver will never come)?

And sorry that my joke was stale. After posting I noticed I was hardly the first or last to make the same remark.

But what new can be said about these trucks?

It’s all good! I didn’t want to sound preachy or anything, and I did notice you weren’t the only one making the call (but didn’t want to span my thoughts and you were first appearing in my scrolling).

I think another comment made that call about it being a reflection of a fragile sense of masculinity which lands better imo. Like, that’s plausibly true, and doesn’t perpetuate a cultural narrative that penis length is a corollary of masculine worthiness.

OP most-likely meant “Napoleon complex”. They overcompensate for their insecurity.
