I mean I'm all for making fun of truck owners but in this case it's just straight up not a good comparison. The bicycle is carrying half the number of bags...

They're far bigger bags. I went to find the original images elsewhere in the thread. The bike is carrying 200 litres of soil, the truck is only carrying 170 L

Also: distance, hills, etc.

That bike is a better solution for a lot of people, but let's not pretend it's a practical one for everyone.
