someone please explain this odd trend I've been noticing lately of riding around with a traffic cone sitting in the back of your truck.

seems to be mostly teenage guys. I've also noticed it often seems to be a similar crowd as the "carolina squat" people...

for a while, you'd just see regular ol' orange traffic cones sticking up in the middle of the bed, but now it seems some are even going so far as to decorate/paint them.

I don't get it...

Considering you have to steal the cone, that's probably the angle. "I wanna do hood rat stuff with my friends" kinda deal.

Folks are doing it around here. Been waiting to see a cone in the back of my little brothers truck. When I do I'm gonna slap the taste out his mouth and tell him how STUPID it is. Maybe he's one of the few that are smarter than that.

I don't understand it & I've seen it.
But if that's their idea of fun and it keeps them from other more risky behaviors then whats the harm.

The Carolina squat stuff one can make a compelling argument for vehicle dynamics/safety.

A silly cone in the bed, whatever.

I didn't realize that there was a petty theft aspect of it and that is not alright.

Not at all justifying the bad behavior but putting perspective, kids long before the cone fad have stolen and shot road signs.

I know of no other readily available source of them. They're probably not buying them at a Grainger outlet with their mom.

It's not meant for you to understand or appreciate.
It's a fashion trend that is meant to upset a more conservative traditional crowd.

I don't understand it & see it as a safety concern but I don't let it rustle my jimmies.
