Why a pickup truck?

i had trucks a couple of times in my younger years and missed them, plus i've been increasingly needed to make do without one (or borrow one) more and more often in the last couple years.

some random asshole hit me going 60 on i95, and my wife was tired of hearing me complain about fitting stuff in the back of the cars...so what an opportunity! plus, she's the negotiator from *hell* and we got the thing for a great price...I mean, I'd feel sorry for the IRS if they ever audit us...

 

Because I'm a Texan!!

 

Was tired of not having 4wd for the snow. Plus I'm getting a boat this summer. Impala SS I had wasn't going to cut it for that.

 

I'm on and off of construction sites 7 or 8 times a day. I would destroy a car in a month. I also haul filthy construction equipment several times a week.

 

This needed to be a multiple choice poll.

 

everything a pickup does i use it for it, except for longer trips i have an Audi A4, better mileage and a hell of a lot quicker and more fun on the road.

 

I honestly just loved the looks of the Tacoma ever since they came out!! Plus I never owned a truck before so why not start out with a Toyota!!

 

I really enjoy having a truck because it allows me to move other peoples stuff for them.

 

The ability to put stuff in the bed was the number one priority. I had to fit a 5HP Husqvarna lawn mower diagonally on the back seat of my Subaru Impreza sedan. Not a pretty sight or fun to get in and out without damaging the upholstery.

Secondly, I want to start exploring places where the Subaru's ground clearance becomes a liability.

 

I hate getting in and out of car.

 

Because I wanted one and was tired of the protege.

 

I always wanted to buy truck for 10 years. Thought about SUV and brought and don't like it after 5 years. I am tall and dont like to get in and out of the car. First I thought it was cool when I see back to the future movie. When I saw that black truck, look sexy. After research and decide buy Tacoma. Love it and I am glad to pick this truck.

 

I bought a pick up again because my wife said I wanted one.
No really, I would ahve been happy driving an something more economical.

Well I wanted an outback but she didn't want my hockey equipment inside any of the new vehicles so a pick was the only choice I had

 

It wa given to me. Even if it wasn't, I'd still buy it. I believe every urban and suburban houshold would do well to own a truck.

 

I have a sedan, coupe, SUV...plus I needed a truck to do home improvements projects and other shit the wife finds.

 

me+girl+dog+stuff = not enough room in the camry for camping / roadtrips

 

i bought this truck mainly for the looks, but I also bought it to haul stuff. My gf has a corolla so we didnt need another car.

 

Because Chevrolet no longer makes an El Camino SS like they did from 70-72

 

Just not in the states, Holden does, its part of GM.

 

I saw lots of these in mexico, but they had a chevy emblem on the front, Im guessing there is a chevy version of the same thing.
