I can't begrudge people their toys, but at least he's a sensible truck owner. My complaint is about those who put 20,000 miles a year on a huge empty truck because their concerned about their image (and use the travel trailer as an excuse.) As I mentioned, I have a 4x4 Ranger that gets terrible mileage (see my garage), but it sees 2000 miles a year or less, and will be sold as soon as I can get off this mountain.
