Scientists at the UCLA did a 5 year study on this same issue, and their findings were recently published in their science journal. The main causes were:
- Horsepowers
- Street cred
- Looks cool
- This is 'Murica and I do what I want

It gives us "Non-Limited" folks a little bling.
Plus, the badges were free with the TRD boxer-briefs I bought.
