    They have become prohibitively expensive to have as a secondary vehicle, if someone is in a position to need a truck occasionally, most people can’t afford to have it as anything other than their daily driver.

      If you only need a truck occasionally, rent one.

      I don’t understand the problem here.

      Also, these monstrosities are gas guzzlers, a smaller vehicle will be cheaper to run. Your argument lacks merit here.

        Renting a truck right now in my area is $200 a day. If I need a truck for a day, I will almost certainly not be in a place financially to rent one
