Almost half of Americans drive a pickup truck. Most Americans who don’t drive one think they’re getting too big. YouGov asked “a nationally representative sample of 1,116 adults (aged 18+ years) in the U.S.” to fill out an online survey in February.
They found that 47% of respondents owned a pickup and 41% of respondents agreed with the statement that trucks and SUVs “have become too large in recent years.” That group even includes many truck owners. Thirty-nine percent of truck drivers, the researchers say, “believe that the vehicle category has become too big.”
