I just checked and if I needed to get a sheet of plywood from Home Depot, it would be about $50 for a pickup truck from U-Haul but at least around here, you can't usually leave your car at the rental place, so I would need to enlist someone to drop me off and then of course after the pickup and dropoff of the payload at my house, another ride to pick me up. I probably need the bed of my pickup once a month on average. I'm not sure how much I would pay to avoid that hassle and time sink, but probably more than the savings of having a small car.
- nitwit005 4y agoI'm not sure the real rate of a using the truck to haul is known. The only statistic I can find cited is an "at least once a year" survey number. That said, I suspect even once a month puts you well above average for a non-commercial owner. You can observe all the empty truck beds in cities.
