Size is relative
Is that your truck, or are you just…no, really, is that your truck!?
Several years ago, when my little MightMax died, I replaced it with another used pickup. Limited by the amount of time I was willing to spend on the process of replacing my truck and the number of used trucks actually on the lot, I got my not so little Tacoma.
Everytime I look at it, I think it's huge. It clearly had some sort of “off road” package when it was new: a cranked up suspension, huge tires (which I recently replaced with slightly smaller, slightly cheaper ones when the originals gave out) and a “clutch start cancel” button that I will never use and only occasionally pretend to fully understand.
Then the electrician drove up.
Clearly, size is relative.

Wow! Is that an electric truck? Because if it isn't it must consume an enormous amount of gas...
I said it was my electrician's truck, not an electric one. And since he has to pay for the gas, I can just imagine what the bill is going to be :-)
Quick, invade another middle-eastern country to get more oil...
Wow! That is a big truck! I wanted a Tacoma v6 for so long, but the dealer convinced/pressured me into a Dodge Dakota v8 (13-16gpm). It's been a nice truck, but the gas prices have now driven me to getting a motorcycle.
I'll still keep the Dakota for when there is snow/ice on the roads, but I'll be on the bike the rest of the time getting 55-60mpg!
