    So I own a big stupid truck TM and while it’s only used a few thousand miles a year to pull horses, occasionally I need to run to the store with it. What I don’t do is try to pull into a narrow ass tiny spot near the door, I park as far to the back as I can so I’m inconveniencing the least amount of people and at a much smaller risk of dinging something.

    Do I think my truck is ridiculous? Yes. But I can’t pull 5 tons of trailer and horses with my bike or compact. And I try to limit its non-agricultural use as much as possible.

    Having said that, man that guy is a jackass.




  • Actually, this may be a good spot to ask. Recall a video where they were being chased down the street by fans until they end when they gave up and stood there fans ran right past. They were running after someone/something else. Don’t remember the song though




  • I am with you on keeping it as long as you can. Have had two trucks that after I finished paying on I was fine with running as long as they would drive. Bluetooth adapter to get my phone on. Don’t need touch screen or heated seats or backup cameras.

    With both my wife semi-forced my hand as she kept upgrading horse trailer, the primary reason for me owning trucks, until now I have a huge beast with a gooseneck trailer that I personally only put about 200 miles a year on. I think when it’s time for her car to be replaced I’ll take over the family car assignment and let her be the big truck person.
