He’s parked at an IKEA. I’m willing to bet he’s a contractor that needs that long of a truck to fit everything he buys (including stuff from Home Depot or Lowe’s).
Do you think the first long truck sprang into existence in 2008? We’ve had super long trucks for specific use cases as long as we’ve had trucks. This is like one of the few times a person has a good reason to have a large vehicle, and is being safe and polite about it by staying out of the way and writing a polite note to explain. Large vehicles aren’t the problem, people owning large vehicles who don’t need them are the problem.
Contractors did exist. Innovation usually happens because enough people have a want or need for something for some reason. It’s entirely possible (or even likely) that long trucks came into existence because contractors had a need for them. Ford and other truck companies saw an opportunity to make money from that need and obliged.
Better idea: Don’t buy a truck that’s too big to use safely…

Contractors didn’t exist before trucks became stupid huge? I didn’t know that…
