Bizarre how them Germanz find the most convoluted ways of wreaking havoc in random domains by the most innocent of things they do, and when you step back a bit and think about it, it’s comically evil repercussions could be a james bond or Austin Power-esque mad scientists’ wild dreams come true:
Avoid importing chicken, and the exporting chicken country goes down a rabbithole of building trucks that grow so much in size that they become the terror on wheels.
There’s also the facetious “light truck” exemption from emissions standards that make those vehicles more cost effective to produce, which incentivized a massive and now decades-old advertising campaign across the industry to convince housewives that a humvee will serve their needs better than a station wagon
