Once you’ve owned one it’s hard to go back. You no longer have to find somebody with a truck to haul something, four wheel drive is great in the winter, and you can simply see above a lot of other traffic. Not to mention the added safety Factor. The only real downside is if you go into a city it’s a little harder to park it, and the expenses higher.
You forgot to add that they will also push for your state to be invaded and your ports to be blockaded until you get rid of your offending vehicles.
On my second Tacoma and love them.
My father in law had a 39 chevy. Looks very similar. I recall he told me that 37 or 38 to 41 were unchanged. Then production stopped for the war.
He died about 9 years ago and the truck just sat in his barn. I finally convinced my MIL to sell if a few months ago. I think she got about $9,000. I think she could have done a touch better but not much. It was in great shape but probably deteriorated a bit.

The author shows that he does not realize a “SUV” is just a pickup truck with the top extended all the way to the back bumper.
Well, I’m a true, blue Tennessean...:^)
My boss is a Muslim. He has the biggest truck in the lot. Something about growing up in a rural county.
Every Texan knows you need a fishin' truck.
Now you do know that a couple of Tennesseans helped save Texas from becoming Mexico???
Sammy Houston and Davy Crockett....
LOL. I need a vehicle with head and leg room. I liked the Cube and Scion xB. Those have gone the way of the dodo. My issue with trucks is the higher expenses: gas, insurance, and repair costs.
As for human ant farms, I’ve visited enough to know big cities are NOT for me. (shudder)
I have a small garden, front and back yards are all gardens. I only have a 2002 Dodge Neon and struggle trying to fit bags of mulch, potting soil, and chicken poop in the car. Believe me there are times I wished I owned a truck like when I was putting a stone patio in the back yard and had to haul the stones, sand and gravel in the trunk of my Neon. I had to make a considerable amount of trips to pick up all the stones I needed.
Out of all the posts, mine included, I think you have really zeroed in on the real issue.
Depends on the car :-)
People who suffer from Little Man Syndrome tend to do that, enthusiastically.
... oh, yeah ...
