I’d argue there’s nothing wrong with trucks, either. Some folk have a legitimate use for them: fitting construction material and lumber in the back; towing a trailer.
The problem is two fold, I figure: we’ve got a bunch of folk driving trucks (and SUVs) around that never have a legitimate use for them other than a status symbol. Then there’s the folk that have a partial need for them, but can’t afford to keep multiple vehicles around, so they’re stuck driving the truck they need a fraction of the time.
I’m in the latter category. If i could reliably rent a truck to haul/tow with, I’d replace my family’s Tacoma with a sedan, and save a bunch of money in the process.
