So there's one scenario that requires it... and most truck owners don't pull trailers. You can tell by the lack of marking in the hitch receivers from any sort of actual use.

Yeah, I know tons of truck-driving desk jockeys who get called out to drive through a bog so they can prepare their Excel spreadsheets.

I'll agree with this. Just have to pick your spots is all.
No, sorry, it's ######ed to think a guy with a truck only needs it one or two days a year. That guy is not buying a truck.

People with trucks doing truck stuff don't advertise to friends and acquaintances when they're using their truck for its truckiness. They just do it and carry on with their day/week/month.

I mean, maybe you guys know all these weirdos who own trucks and don't do truck stuff, but I'm not buying it. I'm 48 and know plenty of people. I know a grand total of zero people who have a truck and don't use it for doing truck things.

I will say I know people who should have a truck, but don't, and then their cars are a disgusting mess because they're putting things on upholstery that belong in the bed of a pick-up.
