I’ve had my eye on a really nice truck lately. Unfortunately, they must be banned because I don’t have $65,000 to pay for one.

For your analogy to be faithful, there would have to be legislation forcing the price of your "really nice truck" to a million dollars.

Perhaps this will help:

Well, if the government didn’t force manufactures to include all the safety equipment and emissions systems they would be significantly cheaper. What’s the difference? Do a search for auto weapons for sale. If there’s a ban, they’re not very good at it.
