      Trucks are driven by trades people.

      They have the luxury of passing the cost of things like gas on to the customer by simply raising their price.

          That’s a just normal f250

          Doesn’t even have fancy rims or tires

          If you have to haul any trailer or equipment yes you drive one of these or similar

              Maybe if you’re a painter and all you need is a ladder or two

              Any framer needs a trailer full of tools… or you need to haul a bobcat in a dump trailer… or any of the exterior trades that need scaffolding an planks and multiple ladders etc, plus hauling materials

                If you need to haul extremely heavy stuff than you should be using that truck for work and only work. There’s no good reason to be driving a massive truck like that around to do stuff everyone else does with a normal car. Unless you’re in a rural area, no one driving a normal car wants be around your hog, especially in the cities where space is much tighter. And clearly OPs image is an urban area cause there wouldn’t be a parking ramp otherwise.

                  There is no law against driving a normal truck like that to the mall or anywhere for that matter

                  Everyone needs groceries and new socks from the mall
