City dwellers are increasingly working from home and getting everything (including weed) delivered, so the "slob" characterization might not be as strongly associated with F150s as time wears on.

Yeah exactly this. I have cousins that still live in rural America and yes they drive F150s and yes they are considerably more active than the average city dweller. There’s just more (manual) work to do on a farm. Hence the pickup.

But you can just as easily have pretty good produce delivered. It's no excuse
