.. but isn't that exactly what they are doing?
The whole clean / green energy thing isn't something that should be looked at as being "forced" on to other people. The amount of pollution we are putting into the air is causing real problems: It's making people sick, it's destroying the landscape, it's warming the planet - all of which costs alot of money. Adopting "green" policies doesn't mean that anyone, even pickup truck owners, have to give up anything.
If I ever met one of the idiots in those videos, I'd love to have a conversation with them. I think it might go something like this:
Me: "Why do you modify your truck to spew out black smoke?"
Redneck: "Because I don't like the green agenda being pushed on me. I'm from 'Merica, woo!"
Me: "Pretend your barn is the world. Would you run your pickip in your bar with the doors closed?"
Redneck: "Hell Yeah! Fumes don't hurt nobody no-how! Wooo!"
Me: "What about your cows & chickens?"
Redneck: "That's a great idea! Smoked meat! Wooo!"
Me: "Would you let your Dog stay in that barn with your running pickup truck?"
Redneck: "... ... ..."
A little extreme, but you get the point.
