I get that they and all their up-voters might have valid reasons for needing a one. But at this point I’m not sure if they can even imagine buying anything other than a truck.

Wishing upon the stars that the oversized cars may still be oversized, but a tick smaller. And that last one just needs a Van.

    I previously had a truck, but had to get rid of it once it started having some engine issues. I lived in the city, so I figured I could make do with a sedan.

    Boy do I miss my truck. I never really realized how much I needed it in big-city,USA, but it sure is apparent now. Plenty of times I need to haul something for work, or sometimes pop a curb to set up some tabling stuff, or even just hauling my bike for hitting some trails. My next car is probably going to truck, hopefully something small that is fuel efficient and easy to park. I just don’t want to give up having the convenience of a bed that can haul heavy, messy stuff, it’s too convenient for me

      I feel like a bike rack would pay for itself on a sedan pretty fast compared to the extra cost of purchasing, fueling and maintaining a truck

      You know, you can haul stuff with a sedan too, do you? A VW Passat for example can pull up to 2.2 tons, that’s even enough for almost all caravans. Even my tiny Ford Fiesta could pull up to a ton, easily enough to haul a bike or two.
