A friend who stopped in England en route to the LeMans Classic in 2012 =
told me that he remarked to the Brit he was visiting that he was =
surprised that the man=E2=80=94who lived in the =
country=E2=80=94didn=E2=80=99t own a pickup truck.

*    One sees very few pickup trucks in metropolitan areas. One sees =
so-called =E2=80=9CChelsea Tractors=E2=80=9D in the smarter areas of =
town which are mainly top of the range Range-Rovers that never leave =
town. So, these are basically a waste of space. In the country, one sees =
pickups which are, mostly, owned by farmers/timber people etc. Around =
here, Devon, you=E2=80=99ll often see them with sheep in the back! The =
other pickups around here are mostly owned by posers who don=E2=80=99t =
realize how silly they look.

=20

  The response was that no one who did not have a business need for such =
a vehicle was permitted to own one.  Any Brits out there who can vouch =
for this?

*       That=E2=80=99s not true. Nonsense, in fact. They are prohibitively =
taxed but ownership is not restricted. Of course, one might argue that =
said posers should be prohibited but that=E2=80=99s a whole other topic!
