Good for you, but hopefully you realize that this is not a typical lifestyle.
I know plenty of people that have and need their trucks, but most of them would be fine without one. I have a good friend that justifies his truck by towing a jet-ski that any car could tow and most truck owners I know fall into this camp. They have an occasional need for something that can tow or haul and usually a minivan or crossover would be fine or better.
I’ve owned three trucks and still have an old one. I fall into the don’t really need one but like one category as I suspect most do. Didn’t say anything was wrong with it.
I'm looking at Ford Mavericks. I really just need the bed, at most. I've owned trucks and SUVs before, and prefer compact pickups over everything else. I could easily use a 5x8" flatbed trailer and gain extra space with a crossover SUV, which is the smart move for people that have the space for a trailer.
I'm lucky to even be buying a house, let alone a full frame pickup and a heavy trailer like a horse trailer. I'd rather pay off a mortgage. Without affordable compact pickups coming back, I wouldn't ever have one again. I was leaning towards small crossover SUVs and hatchbacks with a trailer.
Beyond that if you look at the states where the highest percentage of vehicles are pickup trucks you will notice a trend. Most of them are largely rural, have harsh weather and agriculture is a significant industry.
I own a F-150 and know many people that also own one. Most of the people I know with them regularly haul or tow payloads which require it. I use my F-150 at least once a week to haul a multiple horse trailer. In the summer I also use it regularly to access my beach house which is only accessible with a 4 wheel drive vehicle. A few times each summer I also use it to help haul those who think AWD is the same thing off the nearby beach.
I live in a suburban condo development. Most of my neighbors have no idea what I use my F-150 for and I'm sure think it serves no useful purpose.
