The rise of the Platinum F350 as a luxury vehicle is something I wouldn't have predicted. It's crazy how much money people are willing to spend on an impractical vehicle like a full-size pickup.

That being said, I really like big trucks. I guess it's selfish to want one, but I still do. Of course I don't live in the city, where it would be more hassle than enjoyable.

I've heard contractors complaining that they can't get cheap basic work trucks anymore. That was one of my thoughts about people complaining about non ones going to buy an electric vehicles because 'too expensive'. Have they priced a full sized truck lately?
I mean I want a Suburban or Expedition... I mean I guess I could get a minivan too but having towing capacity for something I may never tow sounds good. :/
