BMW's entire marketing department gets that you don't sell cars based on what the driver's actually going to use it for, but based on an emotional pull on who the driver wants to be. Trucks are no different. Studies after study can show how much people don't pull trailers, but that's not why the F150 is the US' best selling truck.
