I live in a rural area.

And I'm sure not all big truck owners tailgate. But when I am being tailgated, it is almost always by a big truck.

So it is I think many people shape their view of these vehicles. It could be a tiny percentage of the owners or large trucks, but we remember these interactions of bright lights, a cloud of coal, loud horns, and someone tailgating an inch behind us.
