38. Yep. That's about it.

I think they’re intimidation devices. Certainly used for bullying in cases like these. Big and in-yer-face. All the way to their noxious tailpipes and the oversized trump 2020 flags flapping out the back end.

Everything over-sized, jacked up, souped up, attempted domination, intimidation, and overwhelm. With lots of unnecessary noise pollution for punctuation. Eyesores on wheels.

A work tool or hauling tool is one thing. But that’s not what I see when the trumpers get in my way and crowd the road and attempt to “strut their stuff” with them.

Speaking, here, as one who’s anything but impressed (assuming that’s part of the motivation for having one).
