Are pickups really needed ?

You bought yours as a vehicle with a purpose.
That's what I'm talking about.
I seen people on the expressway with those LED light bars lit up in bumper to bumper traffic at night.
Now if that isn't a macho thing correct me.
A pick up was made to be functional, not just a $50K toy.
You want a toy go buy a Ferrari.

Yes, practical pickups are needed. Full length 8' beds. I have my '06 2500 Chevy that was my daily driver for years for the sign industry. Hauled more than my share of lumber, plywood and whatever else (3000#'s of concrete, anyone?). Try that in a minivan. There are those that buy pickups for a status symbol - that I can't figure out. Then there are those that buy them to work, like me. When I can't fit stuff into the HHR, the truck gets used. Else, I drive my HHR.

We have a friend that won't drive anything BUT a pick up truck. She says she feels safer in her Ram 1500, this is her 2nd Dodge Ram. 1st she traded when it hit 250K on the odo.
So I say, when someone spends their own money (or commits to the payments), that's their biz.

So she needs one to feel safe.
It would be interesting to know if a lot of people feel the same way that own them in areas where pickups aren't used as a pickup was intended to be used by design.
