Oddly enough, it was about women with big pickup trucks. New ones. They interviewed one who said it cost her $200 per fill. Think of that next time you see one of those behemoths coming down the road.

It's even more expensive if you're hauling horses around, like these women were.

And let's not forget, they earn less than men, so it's even harder for them to fuel these vehicles.

The woman they interviewed highly identified with the gigantic pickup truck. She plans to continue paying to run it.
