    Either your definition of small car is extra tiny or your definition of normal things is exaggerated.

    Jobs need trucks. Daily driving doesn’t.

      I remember a guy called into Car Talk asking about what he should buy. After describing his needs they recommended a smaller or midsize car. The guy said “But what about when I need to haul stuff?” They asked him how often he actually did that and he said about 2-3 times a year. They said to save himself thousands of dollars and get the smaller vehicle and rent a truck for a fraction of the cost for the few times he needed to haul stuff.
