Just to add your thought, we have the 4R if we ever need to tow ~5k. If it’s ever worse, my dad has an expedition that can haul ~9.8k. I can see hauling my tractor in the future, but that’s it. We don’t have any plans for needing to haul a classic car… yet. LolHere’s an example - my Tundra.
The requirement - tow rating of 7,500# (the approximate weight of the Packard on a trailer) and ability to serve as a daily driver, seeing fewer than 10,000 miles/year.
As I shopped trucks (I initially wanted a Tacoma, but equipped as I wanted it, the tow rating wasn’t there) I looked at all the major brands and trim levels.
Requirement would have been met with the “work truck” cloth interior trim level.
I bought the 1794 trim level. Absolute top of the line with leather, heated and air conditioned seats, etc.
A bit of want mixed in with the need.
A truck with a bed would be nice, but I would be happy with a Subaru too. The Subaru would almost fit my needs more than a truck IMO. Both vehicles are almost a want/ need.
