I don't think people realize how expensive pickup trucks are. The 2021 F-150 Platinum Trim you mentioned starts at $59,110 - these are luxury vehicles.

That's just cap cost. Pickups do very well on depreciation, much better than a similarly prized luxury car. The TCO is pretty respectable by comparison.

But I'm a bit of a cheapskate and I only ever get the XLT, not the Platinum. Only luxury I really care to pay for is CarPlay. But to each their own!
