Some of it comes down to the way so many of us are underpaid.
I’d get a hell of a lot of use out of a pickup truck if I had one. Not enough to want to daily drive it, but enough that it would be worth having.
But for most of my daily driving, I could just about get away with an electric golf cart (the way laws are in some states I probably could use something like a golf cart, but my own states implementation of NEVs and such are a little stricter)
In an ideal world I’d have some little electric sedan for most of my daily commuting and errands, and then a truck (though probably a small one) for when I need one.
But I don’t have the budget for 2 vehicles, nor the parking space for them.
Personally my compromise is a mid-sized SUV that fits most of my needs well enough. Others may decide that the best compromise for them is to daily drive the truck. I don’t think most of those people have actually thought too deeply about whether that’s actually a good choice, but I’m sure that for some people it does actually make sense.
