NL here: Imported American trucks. You do not need a car that costs €5000/month in fuel alone that you cannot use practically in any way that a van, a regular car or even a bakfiets could do more cost-effectively. The only people who go through the effort to get such a vehicle are compensating for something, and a Dodge Ram in The Netherlands is only useful for dick measuring, and the most significant thing it'll ever move is the owner's fragile ego.

We look at those people the same in the US too tbf lol

At least the European car market still has regular cars. Turns out that if it's cheaper and easier to build and sell trucks, car manufacturers will make only trucks. So too many Americans buy trucks and SUV's, not because they want to, but because that's the only thing they can buy.

So too many Americans buy trucks and SUV’s, not because they want to, but because that’s the only thing they can buy.

That is...insanely inaccurate lol. "I wanted to buy a car but I could only find trucks for sale" is not a thing in this country whatosever.
