l You get taken serious by your fellow carbrained americans because ““trucks”” are normalized and small handy cars are ridiculed.
So unless you are a fragile piece of human, choose the right one.
I mean, I wouldn’t but that thing still has to get moved somehow. That truck still has to be available somehow.
I don’t think the big family that is going on their once or maybe twice a year camping trip with their large trailer is going to rent a truck for their vacation. But, yes that’s a possibility.
I mean if our culture wasn’t so car centric and centered around instant gratification that wouldn’t be an issue, it’s not too hard to rent a car at all, especially if you’ve been planning a year long trip. Not trying to soapbox here, though, I’m very reliant on my car too and see doing all that as an inconvenience, but I realize how absurd it is to feel that way.
