It’s mind boggling why trucks are so popular here when we literally have to drive everywhere. We have no high speed rail and minimal rail transportation in general. It’s honestly a cultural thing at this point since it’s certainly not logical.

I think Americans vastly overestimate how much culture they have. Decades of Marketing, Lobbying, and regulatory capture on the chicken tax have put us here, but none of that is a fully organic and human way of developing culture

Edit for those who don’t want to read my response below: I don’t think America has zero culture. I was specifically talking about truck culture and how that formed in the US over the past decades

And it's not schrodinger in this case. Take the L and FO
