You might drive a large vehicle if...

Years ago, we were staying in a hotel with actual television. We don't do tv at home, so this was a rare treat, and Paul channel surfed his way across a Jeff Foxworthy comedy routine. There was a lot of "you might be a redneck if..." in it.

We have a larger than average family, and I drive a larger than average car. Recently, I've gotten some comments about my wheels, and it reminded me of the comedy routine.

You might drive a large vehicle if a mom at school hops out of her vehicle, races over to yours and asks, "How much do you charge?" assuming you're running an after school shuttle/drop off service.

You might drive a large vehicle if you get charged BUS PARKING fees at the Lodi zoo. (true story; I'm still cheesed over that one)

You might drive a large vehicle if you're sitting in a softball parents meeting and you realize you have more seatbelts than the team vans do.

And from just last week, you might drive a large vehicle if an absolute stranger comes up to you in a parking lot, peers over your shoulder as you're loading groceries into the back, and says, "You could put a bowling alley in the back of that thing!"
