The reason is because you assume the common stereotype of every American being the same.

there's so many of us so widely spread out. it is laughable when people say "Americans" and assume every single American is the same person.

there is a lot of tiresome "Americans this, Americans that." and most of us are looking around going "... who?"

How would you phrase it then? I don't think every American is the same. I'm just going off the cars I see on the road. Most of them are either Trucks or SUVs.
