I’m not saying you don’t need the truck (only you know your needs), but I can haul quite a lot with my hatchback + utility trailer. Trucks aren’t the only tow-capable vehicle out there these days, modern 4 bangers are quite powerful
Yes there are a lot of people who get them for stuff that can be grabbed with a car more or less. 6 bags of concrete and some 2x4s can easily be gotten in a car infrequently.
And yes I likely could make a car/trailer work, but some sites are off-roading more or less. So even if you’re a lackey, sometimes the site just requires more than a car and other options than a truck aren’t as practicable or convenient.
Yeah every could go and a rent truck 3 times a week. But that’s just silly after a point, and yeah sure there is sometimes you don’t need it for 2 months as well. That’s reality.
Nope, but you still get it if you haven’t used it for a week or something. People seem to think you need to use it 100% of the time to justify it or something.
The biggest upside to a truck is that the bed is outside. It’s perfect for wet, stinky, unsanitary, powdery/sandy, etc can cause huge headaches in a van or hatchback, and doesn’t require you to pull a trailer which can be a real pain in the ass sometimes. It’s like the multitool of vehicles: bulky, not the best for any given job, but capable of doing almost anything.

You are definitely not the demographic people usually complain about when they complain about truck owners.
