I don't think buying a truck and not using it for truck things is any different than buying a sporty car over a base model one, or buying a 3 row CUV over a much more superior minivan for example. I've had close to 30 vehicles of all sorts and have just recently got into trucks. I've had a Tundra, Ridgeline and Tacoma, I want to try an F-150, Ram, and maybe one of the GMs soon.
