It is ok, in any situation unrelated to farm ownership, to own a pick-up truck?
Hold your punches. This is a $ question, not an ethics question.
My husband loves hunting. It's been his passion for 35+ years. Most seasons involve regular driving through fields, off road, etc. This is a truck that has scratches in the bed, not a pretty truck with shiny rims. It usually smells like cows. It's a 2006, paid off. I have a 2013 Altima, paid in cash. When we drive anywhere we take my car unless we are moving furniture or something. We are moving in the next few months to a location where we can both work near the new house and bike to work, so we won't have to drive even my car except for legit reasons. And hunting.
So, is it still expensive to keep the truck that isn't often driven except for hunting trips? It's a dodge something, not a tiny truck but not the biggest engine. Is there an alternative to a pick-up that I am missing?
