You don't fit. Go to your own garage. You are several feet too long.

Normal people don't need to haul over 30k lbs on a regular basis. Businesses sometimes do! These vehicles are not supposed to be daily drivers their supposed to be work horses. A 2 ton diesel chassy is made for hauling big loads, and if you don't need to haul big loads you don't need one simple as that! Really the only "regular people" I can fathom owning a rig like that are farmers otherwise they really are only useful in construction and other contracting gigs that require lots of equipment hauling to job sites, or in the case of where I work the need to haul multiple vehicles on a gooseneck at a time.

Yes, and businesses have business vehicles with cheaper taxes, which cannot be used privately. Small/solo businesses can be partly exempted from this.

The size of that thing is completely ridiculous and would be a major nuisance/hazard, to drive around in a city

Not to mention a lot of these new trucks of that stature have WORSE visibility than a semi truck! You could run over a group of children in a cross walk and have no idea 😳 it is honestly surprising there's not more licencing for driving a vehicle larger than x size. Hell any moron with a regular driver's licence can get behind the wheel of a RV that's 40 feet long, and one fuck up in a vehicle that weighs that much can cause a LOT of damage.
