A Truck on the Street

I still don't have enough energy to post about the topic of the week, so instead, here's a truck I saw parked on the street in my walkable neighborhood today:

From the side, at first glance, it's obnoxious. What are those rivets for, above the wheel wells? Why is it so pristine if it's a work truck or for off-roading, as indicated by the lifted suspension? And in general the Dodge Ram brand seems meant to imply what the trucks are intended to do to other vehicles and people. 

But then it got worse when I noticed the details.

First on the truck itself:

 It's a truck made for soldiers or ex-soldiers? Valor Edition with a spiky red outine. I doubt it's really "military grade." And Carpe Omnia... that means "seize everything" or "seize it all," if I'm not mistaken.

And then there's what its owner added to the right side of its back window:

It's a bit hard to see but the DD-214 refers to a military discharge document. "I'm your huckleberry" — given the background graphic — is probably from some mixed martial arts subculture that has taken the phrase from the film Tombstone and turned it into their own meme about being able to beat people up. 

That's a square Three-Percenter flag, if I'm not mistaken, toward the left. And then there's the black and white flag with not just a thin blue line, but a red line and gray (black?) line, plus three figures, maybe soldiers. Not sure what that's about but I doubt it's good, given the context.

Like the Raptor I saw a couple of years ago, this truck is meant to be seen as a weapon by everyone who is near it. Who buys such a thing? I don't want to know that person.
