Why do they always get into their car / truck to panic?
Honestly, maybe so the family doesn't see, while they can gather composure. A little bit of "men don't cry" and a little bit of "don't want the family to all have heart attacks before I know for sure"
Maybe acoustics too. But at this point it's just part of the right wing grift asthetic.
I'd bet it's more "Look, see I am an authentic manly man and a conservative, just look at my Carhart and my truck."

It's big strong frame, imposing physique makes them feel respected, and it's supple, soft and warm seats make them feel loved. Why wouldn't you rant in your 80k emotional support vehicle?
