I drive trucks for years, but now that I'm hauling less plywood and more camera gear I use a van.

The thing about the trucks is I usually didn't need them to be trucks - maybe once or twice a week. But it's not like I was gonna pay insurance on 2 cars, and even only using it occasionally as a truck it still made more sense than a Civic.

I think more trucks like the Ford Maverick would be a hit. Small, affordable 4-door hybrid that has a short bed.
