I live alone too. That's why I can afford to have five vehicles. I just prefer 
to use the Comanche as my daily ride because I can keep my fishing gear in it 
in case I feel like getting away from it all before I go home from work, or if 
I spot some good lumber on the burn pile I can grab it before someone else gets 
it. I'm also in the midst of a major cleaning project, so I take 2 - 3 big bags 
of trash to the dumpster at work each shift. It's much easier to drag out of 
the back of a truck.

Kate,

Except for the chickem and horse feed, I can put all that in my Civic... but 
then I'll only have room for one passenger....
Luckily I live on my own. If you don't count my daughter who has just moved 
back in with me

I have to agree. I drive a Jeep Comanche for everyday use. The 6' bed can 
handle my trips to the feed store for 4 forty pound bags of dog food, 6 twenty 
pound bags of cat food (I am responsible for the Master of Yard Mice at the UP 
yard), 2 fifty pound bags of chicken food, and two 50 pound bags of horse food. 
When I need to carry more than one passenger, I use the Cherokee, which is the 
station wagon version of the Comanche. If I have the urge to carry long loads 
of lumber or pull a trailer, the F-350 crew cab can handle it at 10mpg, whether 
empty or pulling a loaded 4 horse trailer up a mountain.

My motto is-If there's something your car doesn't do that you want it to, then
get one that does what you want it to.
But 4' bed on a ?truck? that's not a truck, it's a look-at-me, I pretend to do
stuff, in my opinion. Flame Suit on!!
