Yes, do you know what makes them relevant in their industry? Recognizing they aren’t a monolith and making decisions based off of data that their employees process.
And I guess none of these employees are women in your perfect world?
I really don’t know, truth be told I don’t really look at any corporation as the individuals that make it up. They’re all a part of the same monster, and that does skew my understanding of certain dynamics.
I don’t really know if I agree with the idea that men are trapped into buying bigger and bigger trucks. Truth be told, all I know is my experience on the road - the guys driving the biggest trucks end up being the most aggressive assholes. Make of that what you will.
Are you talking about Kei trucks? Are you seriously hinging your entire argument on legislation preventing vehicles that are less than 25 years old from being imported?
Or are you talking about the chicken tax and CAFE standards? Because, guess what, the cheapest price I found for a brand new GMC truck is 47 grand. Cheapest price I’m seeing for a brand new Toyota Tacoma is 31k. Top tier models come out to about 50k.
And even they’re still too big, but none of that matters to you because you need a truck for truckin around doin’ truck stuff!
Edit: shit, I can find a used tacoma from 2005 that would be a better price and size than your average brand new monster truck. Anyone trying to tell me that I’m rejecting reality in a used truck market like this tells me they’ve got skin in the game.
No, I’m not entertaining this anymore - it is overwhelmingly men at the core of the truck problem in the U.S.

You have seen how incompetent Elon Musk is and you’re still behaving like CEOs actually matter. Beyond the ability to tank his brand, of course.
I don’t have anything else to say.
