I call that a safety net.Insert any truck that has way more capability than you will ever use.

Maybe some do lol. Our grocery getter has more miles towing our camper than not. Plus pulling the utility trailer.lol so
someone has to do it
lol you have to own a truck that is more than you need to haul groceries in lol
but some never haul anything in the bed or hooked to a trailerI call that a safety net.
So does your safety net have the ability yo tow 25,000 pounds, cross the Rubicon and get 10 miles per gallon? Never know. You might get another bike on the trailer lol.I call that a safety net.
the trailer being pulled is more weight than your toy can handle lolSo does your safety net have the ability yo tow 25,000 pounds, cross the Rubicon and get 10 miles per gallon? Never know. You might get another bike on the trailer lol.
Nope. But if that type of vehicle was more readily available here I'd be a candidate. As it is we really only have cab over style.So does your safety net have the ability yo tow 25,000 pounds, cross the Rubicon and get 10 miles per gallon? Never know. You might get another bike on the trailer lol.

In my theoretical reply to kiwi? Of course not. We most likely will never pull more that 3500-4000 pounds and not any time soon. Future camper upgrade plans.the trailer being pulled is more weight than your toy can handle lol
Sure we do. Just takes a year vs a month. And there are two of us. You know that mfer don't share.but you dont eat as much as jason lol

We basically only drive the truck for truck stuff. Any grocery or errands, work...the two cars are used.I go get the groceries here. What's the wagon got to do with it? I'd get em in whatever I was driving at the time.

We get 23-24mpg without a trailer and 17.5-18.5 with the camper. 19-21 with the utility trailer and bikes.I've gotten 23mpg empty and 8mpg pulling about 14k with my diesel. If I wasn't a lead foot, it could probably be better.
My 'truck' is my car. I can buy a lot of fuel for the cost savings on buying a third vehicle.We don't just take the truck to town unless there will be something in the bed or the bikes are being pulled on the trailer. Camper. The Civic gets 34-36 mpg and the hrv gets 30-32. Makes sense to drive those for errday transportation ect.
You, like Dallas, have a use for that capacity of towing and hauling.I've gotten 23mpg empty and 8mpg pulling about 14k with my diesel. If I wasn't a lead foot, it could probably be better.
We could have the truck as the car as well. We choose not to is all. The cars were bought new and outright. And the majority of the miles goes on them.My 'truck' is my car. I can buy a lot of fuel for the cost savings on buying a third vehicle.
Everyone's situation is their own.
