Some people just really like to drive a truck everywhere. :h I have an F250 for towing, or hauling stuff, and that's what I recommend for you OP. My daily driver is a Fusion. Much better arrangement IMO. The added benefit is the truck only has 9,000 miles on it in 1 1/2 years. I plan on keeping it for at least 10 years, just like my last Ford :B
FYI: My payload is 2876 lbs per the yellow sticker. When we had the F150 the I had to tell the wife she couldn't bring everything she wanted. It was a good day when I told her those days were over ;)
