I feel like a pretty good vehicle for a lot of people like that who need a truck sometimes and don't want a second vehicle could be one of the new small diesel trucks, like the ram ecodiesel. 30mpg is more than even most compact SUVs get, it's still a truck for people that like that, and it can haul/tow more than a compact suv as well.
A big problem with 2 vehicles instead of 1 is often that insurance costs so much more, even if you're driving the same number of miles as when you had 1 vehicle. Registration fees too.
There's an EV ute-sized truck I saw going for sale soon in the EU and I want it so badly here in the US
Don't need a big pickup truck by any means, but I DO need something that can haul a couple hay bales 10 miles every few weeks or so and tow something in a pinch
Currently I just manage with my Leaf cuz fuck paying for gas, but the market is def there as I'm not the only one in my area that would love it

I keep my paid off subie around, but I do like driving the camp converted van around because I can just sit and relax without having to go all the way home.

I'm guessing the title is hyperbole but it's still kinda ridiculous even for hyperbole lol.
Unfortunately, I see it pretty much everywhere.
