Insecure dudes seem to derive insouciant-to-proud self-satisfaction from inflicting noise, visual, and actual pollution on the rest of us which partially explains coal rollers and gaudy, loud motorcycles.
A couple of thousand acres, big sheds, a couple of silos, a few trucks and combine harvesters and a go hard or go home frequently sideways attitude 'll do that, it seems.
To each, their own, I guess. Yeah, I get needing 4WD for snow and mountains and reasonable capabilities suitable for farm and work, but excess is excess. I also don't understand why people put up with highway princess trucks that cost $60k+. My dad's shop '78 Chevy C-10 Scottsdale lacked headrests, cupholders, and a radio only the latter of which was added. You used to be able able to buy cheap-ish fleet trims of trucks if you didn't want a bunch of plastic and extra nonsense, I don't know if that's still the case; I wonder if Toyota makes fleet versions of Tundras (made near where I live) or Tacomas (if they're not discontinuing tacos) given it doesn't sell Hi-Lux here.
It's not for me but I'm adjacent to rural and mining industries and understand the joy of making an OTT desktop computing rig or near industrial home-lab.
In a similar manner a mechanic that works on aircraft engines for crop dusters capable of short take off and landing with heavy loads and drafting over fields with low clearance can also enjoy tuning the heck out of a V-8 and taking it to the limit.
It's not insecurity driving that behavior, it's confidence veering into over confidence.
You can see that same let's have a go and push it mentality in building MudCrab underwater EV cars
