I love the 3/4 trucks. The issue isn't really having the passenger room, it's more about where do we put our luggage, bags, etc for a family of 4 - other than in the bed of the truck. That's an option, but when it's raining.....that sucks. I guess I could get a truck cab with it, but it's still a bed of a truck rather than having everything be in an interior area.
If you do not need passenger space, then getting a pickup is a no brainer option. With a pickup, you have virtually unlimited engine, payload, towing options and a topper of even a hard tonneau cover can/will keep your belongings secure and dry, all with more cargo storage than a SUV.
You’re asking a question that you already know the answer to....
And they make carpet kits for people who use pickups as SUVs. They’re not expensive and they make the back of the truck look and feel like a car trunk so your luggage doesn’t get offended by being tossed in a truck bed!
