I’m in the same category. I know it’s about cars, but I picture a forklift. What is it about forklifts that forces this association?

Maybe the safety video Forklift Driver Klaus: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psAWGv5O7Zs

Lots of fake gore in this so watch at your own risk.

Omg that video, my coworkers made me watch it when I first learned to use a forklift

It might be that they are machinery that moves heavy things, so our brain makes the association with heavy machinery.

Forklifts are heavy themselves, even the small ones weight as much or more as a sedan and way up. It is quite literally heavy machinery.
