This picture is from Australia. We don't have many, they're becoming more common but ones that are lifted like that are less common. In my area it's mainly normal rams. Which are far bigger than normal aussie cars.

Visited upstate NY a couple of years ago. They accounted for I'd say 30-40% of all traffic. Of course, upstate NY is basically the southern US of the northern US if you know what I mean.

Thanks I'm calling them monster trucks from now on

I live in Imperial Beach, California. There is absolutely no reason to have one of these monstrosities here, and none of the 15 that live in my neighborhood ever have any type of mud on them. Not even the 4 whose hoods are at my eye level, I'm 6'3" / 192cm, because they lifted the hell out of them. I will admit that the guy who has an 8'4" tall old school VW bug may be a bit strange, but at least that thing looks cool, and he has it as an advertisement for his shop, so there was a reason for him to have the thing.

Ironically the VW is the only one that ever has any mud on it.

Truck? It's a fucking tank.

...no, that's just the common american pickup: monster trucks are much larger...
