Part of it is the rig jobs give you a bonus to buy a truck to get to rig sites. They don’t account for all the trucks, but a good portion.
I have a truck myself, instead of a car and needing to a rent truck/trailer weekly for my work. It’s big enough for my kids and to haul most of my work stuff.
I’m not saying you don’t need the truck (only you know your needs), but I can haul quite a lot with my hatchback + utility trailer. Trucks aren’t the only tow-capable vehicle out there these days, modern 4 bangers are quite powerful
Yes there are a lot of people who get them for stuff that can be grabbed with a car more or less. 6 bags of concrete and some 2x4s can easily be gotten in a car infrequently.
And yes I likely could make a car/trailer work, but some sites are off-roading more or less. So even if you’re a lackey, sometimes the site just requires more than a car and other options than a truck aren’t as practicable or convenient.
Yeah every could go and a rent truck 3 times a week. But that’s just silly after a point, and yeah sure there is sometimes you don’t need it for 2 months as well. That’s reality.
Nope, but you still get it if you haven’t used it for a week or something. People seem to think you need to use it 100% of the time to justify it or something.

You are definitely not the demographic people usually complain about when they complain about truck owners.
