People will trash it but I'd venture it is sufficient for 95% of truck owners.
But owning a truck is a dick measuring contest for most people.

GF’s brother is a tattooer in the South Bay. He’s now on his second leased F-150. Both have been heavily modded with aftermarket wheels, tires, exhaust, suspension, led lightbars, etc. He put thousands into a vehicle he does not own and almost never takes off-road and almost never has a reason to load the bed. I think he took it camping a couple times. But I think he feels pretty cool driving it around Hermosa.People will trash it but I'd venture it is sufficient for 95% of truck owners.

my dad has a ridgeline. first scoffed at it but it has insane locking space under the bed, had decent room in back seat, good mileage, and is a honda. It's actually pretty sick. Guy that just installed the electronics on my boat has one and loves is. his tools fit in the compartments under the bed and when he's done working it's all out of the way. not for everyone but I can see why it's cool,
Most people don't even need a standard sized sedan. By that logic, we should all drive one of those micro econo sh!t boxes like a Nissan Leaf.People will trash it but I'd venture it is sufficient for 95% of truck owners.

Can you haul lumber and plywood with ease in a short box crew cab 1500?I just think for something to be labeled a truck it should first and foremost have the capability of hauling a few pieces of lumber and plywood with ease.
People modify lease vehicles? Just whyGF’s brother is a tattooer in the South Bay. He’s now on his second leased F-150.

If truck people truly actually cared about vehicle capability then they would own a work van. Nothing can touch them. But, they don't look cool so....
There's a reason almost every pro contractor has a work van and not some bling F-150.
The problem is the barneys of the world are now the core group to whom the pickup market is catering.Most people don't even need a standard sized sedan. By that logic, we should all drive one of those micro econo sh!t boxes like a Nissan Leaf.
Because they’re stupid. He claimed he was gonna buy the last one until he didn’t. I think he put the factory wheels back on but ate it on the suspension and exhaust because it would be too much work to restore. The dealership will take it back with the mods, but they won’t give you a dime for them.People modify lease vehicles? Just why
Never seen an "adaptor". I think you mean an adjustable hitch. It's more to do with different trailer heights than anything.My favorite are the lifted trucks that have to use an adapter to lower their trailer hitch a foot or two to properly tow a trailer.
True. I always wonder how these people are affording $55k trucks then I remember 90 month financing is a thing now.The problem is the barneys of the world are now the core group to whom the pickup market is catering.
And this is the main reason the small pickup with a normal size bed has disappeared from the USA market.
I’m not disagreeing. But it’s a tradeoff issue. When you need to haul debris or take stuff to the dump the pickup comes in handy.Can you haul lumber and plywood with ease in a short box crew cab 1500?
My minivan hauls lumber and drywall better than most 1/2 ton trucks on the road.
whatever you want to call it, if you have to lower your hitch a foot or two, you didn’t need that lift. You’re just compensating for your small pepis or man parts.Never seen an "adaptor". I think you mean an adjustable hitch. It's more to do with different trailer heights than anything.
I've never seen it be a foot or two. So that's new to me. I just meant the ones with maybe 6 inches of adjustment.whatever you want to call it, if you have to lower your hitch a foot or two, you didn’t need that lift. You’re just compensating for your small pepis or man parts.
My brother in law legit uses heavy trucks for his work in construction. He used to have a Tundra with an air suspension for carrying loads and his new job gave him a new truck. Don’t recall the model. But I once tore the ass of my jeans open lifting my leg to climb into it.
