What I laugh at is seeing some hefty short guy driving his 4x4 F-350 diesel crew cab to his accounting job in the suburbs and it is clear he has never pulled a boat, carried anything in his bed, or traveled with anyone else in the vehicle. Thats not only irony, but a metaphor for much of what's wrong in America. Freedom.
Yes. I do. Correct. I'd rather do that on my bike. Or at least in my small hatchback with camping gear loaded in the back. This vehicle seems like complete overkill for that.

I guess you fail to see the similarities between your example of the under utilized big diesel truck and the massive $100k+ van. And some of these small families have multiple vans. Seems pretty similar in absolute excess to me.
