I don’t own one, so no. If I did need one, I would get one, because there’s nothing wrong with that, despite your hostile phrasing.
After I blew up my Hyundai Tuscan at 100k miles by towing with it, it was determined to be necessary.
Yes, how else can I assert my dominance to the other peasants on the road
Yeah, I haul all sorts of stuff in it, it fits my whole family, and it’s comfortable as hell.
Will never own a truck.
I hauled a load of lumber yesterday. Came in handy.
I…I don’t
I grew up in a small town, so I used my truck a lot. It was “small” s10 pickup and I used it for work on the side. Removing brush, hulling rock, repairing fencing.
I ended up getting a car for daily commuting for work and I didn’t do the side stuff so much, so I sold it.
Personally, if they remade the small s10 I would probably get it again. It has a nice balance of bed space, without being giant. So many trucks now are just huge.
I don’t own one.
I am quite happy my friend and neighbor has one. He definitely needs it. It’s a tool of his trade.
I go fishing a lot, usually from a kayak. It could be done with another vehicle, but I prefer my smallish truck. It’s quick and convenient to load. When I go wading small creeks and get wet, my smelly clothing and gear get tossed in the bed so the cab doesn’t get stinky. Same with any fish I might catch, although I strap a cooler in back so they don’t go bad on the way home. Then there are the occasional purchases of bulky items. I can take them home in my truck instead of bugging a friend with a truck or possibly paying for delivery.
I don’t own one, but when I did I absolutely used it.
How else would i bring your mom back to my place?
Many years ago I owned a small pickup.
At the time most of my friends had sports cars and I had a huge 4 door Buick. I was always stuck being the designated driver.
A pickup was the only two seater “car” I could afford at the time.
So yes, I needed it so I could responsibly get drunk more often.
Need? No, I suppose not. Makes life a lot more convenient though. I’m over 6 feet tall and 300 pounds, so small cars aren’t comfortable for me. I prefer trucks and SUVs for comfort, and trucks are more versatile than SUVs.
No
Yes. Carrying cow feed in cars isn’t the best
Yes.
I haul things in it every week. Tow with it occasionally.
Technically, no. But hauling concrete pavers, retaining wall blocks and lumber isn’t really practical in a Nissan Versa. Have to make too many trips.
More appropriate question wins maybe be: “Do you really need that oversized SUV?”
I don’t own one- I don’t own a vehicle right now at all, because it makes no sense for my lifestyle. When I did, and lived elsewhere, the people who had pickups used them for a lot of stuff- hauling trash to the dump, running errands, getting supplies for their home, etc.
Does it really matter what people drive?
Let’s be honest. A lot of people don’t.
I do not need a truck and do not own one for that reason (among others)
Where else can I hang my Trump flags and “liberals bad” stickers?
I don’t have trash pick up where I live, so YES.
