Some trucks have a definite masculine appeal. For some, driving a diesel pickup is like a direct injection of testosterone.

That the vast majority of pick up owners are conservatives.

“All surveys found that nothing is more Republican than a big pickup”

It follows that uninspired design would have appeal for the target market.

Tell me about it, there is a KIA in my town that looks exactly like my 208 clk 320. If they were to put a MB grill on it you wouldn't be able to tell them apart.
