KalystaIf this person works in a trade that requires heavy hauling of equipment and matrials, fine. They need this truck.
If this person is using it to make up for personal inadequacies then fuck them for buying a monstrosity that pollutes like hell and wasted gasoline.
To be fair, going to IKEA is a defensible application for a vehicle like this. Some of those flat packs are pretty bulky.
CileTheSaneYou’re going to purchase a 22ft truck just for Ikea trips? How often are you going to Ikea for large furniture?
Perhaps there are people who don’t keep a fleet of differently-sized trucks so as not to overshoot.
Right, so these people are going to drive a 22ft truck everywhere because they might go to Ikea at some point in the next 5-10 years?
I went to Ikea with my Honda Civic and strapped my order to the roof of my car. It was awkward for 1 day instead of being awkward every single day.
Maybe they’re doing work that involves moving a bunch of furniture around and they get a portion of it from IKEA?
Silly. For whatever reason they have access to a big truck. Going to IKEA today: do I take the Toyota Starlet or the big truck? I’ll take the big truck.
UndercoverUlrikHDYou can just lease a car from IKEA though
I believe Ikea have their own vehicles.
credit crazyIf we’re talking working at IKEA as like a delivery guy yeah but as a normal dude you don’t need a full size pickup for a once a year thing even I a dude who lives in the middle of nowhere Vermont and have to haul firewood to stay warm during winter my willies jeep does the job just fine and that’s a car that doesn’t even have a bed I just have a crap ton of horsepower and a trailer people forget that jeeps entered the civilian market as a work vehicle for farms and lumber yards
If you’re picking up something big from IKEA, you probably borrow whatever you can. Maybe your cousin has a big-ass truck they can let you use.
I once rented a cargo van to buy a mattress and bed frame from IKEA. It turned out that I didn’t need the van at all and could have packed everything into the 4-door sedan I had at the time. Part of it was because the mattress was rolled up in a compact manner.
I seem to recall that the van could easily fit in one spot.
