    Because I'm a man. I put dead animals in the bed, fishing poles, targets. When I need something moved I'm not at the mercy of someone with a truck. I'M A MAN !!! Oh yeah, I also have honey bees. Transporting them in anything other than a truck is just silly.

    Because I need to haul stuff all the time, I do hardwood floors on the weekends, and I need the ground clearance and off road capability to get me where I need to go.

    1. because i hate cars...they sit too low to the ground.

    2. Because I am limited on what I can put in an SUV.

    3. Because you can't haul big stuff in/with cars.

    4. Because I like playing in the mud.

    5. Because I'm a truck girl and love trucks.

    6. BECAUSE I CAN (most important reason)

    I've owned 6 trucks and the most recent four have all been Tundras. I have to have a truck for my construction company. I don't like driving a car anyways. There is something very fulfilling about having a vehicle with so much versatility. Plus this lumber won't fit in a car. IMG_8242.jpg

    Because you can't be a home owner and not have a truck.
    Because my wife insists we take the truck when we go on road trips even though her Outback gets 30+ MPG on the freeway
    Because I work on the Neurology floor and I want to drive a truck with a 5 star crash rating
    Because if I can't get there in my truck, I probably don't need to go
    I could keep going...

    @4x4_Angel Is correct. The rear tow hitch is a dragon claw. I've had it for ten years now.

    I never owned a truck until I bought my house, before the house I had an Audi and a Monte Carlo. After the house, I realized how often I’m go to lowes. I also wanted something that I could Addison (my yellow lab) with me on trips and her not be cramped inside a car.
