Sadly, there are aholes in every walk of life. Most of the guys around here are ok, they just want safe vehicles on the road.
I actually host a "truck day" open house type thing where people with trucks can come in, ask questions, get info, get the truck inspected if they want (no tickets, it's a free inspection to make sure everything is up to snuff), and generally get themselves squared away and their questions answered. The first year I did it, nobody wanted to drive in. Then some guys in pickups pulled in and wanted to make sure it wasn't a trap, no tickets and just an informal info session. Once they felt cool that it was to help them out, we ened up overwhelmed with guys coming in. It was a fun day. Been doing that for the last 4-5 years

Got a nice write up in the paper last year.
