The price of trucks has gotten to be insane these days, so I don’t like putting any unnecessary miles on my truck because I don’t want it to depreciate any faster than it already is. I will opt for my car unless I “need” the truck for something. I got a nice little grocery getter corolla 5 years ago for $6k and that is my daily driver unless I need the truck for hauling/clearance/towing/hunting/dog training etc. The corolla is cheap to own/insure/fix, gets great gas mileage, and is reliable. Not to mention I can fit in any parking spot and not have to worried about getting doored. I’ve avoided putting almost 40k miles on my truck by having this car. Big trucks are great but I don’t need to drive mine everywhere.
I also have a Corolla for all my driving around miles. I have a truck for truck duties. Corolla gets double the mileage of most trucks and like stated I keep thousands of miles off the truck and drive the wheels off the car.
