Ever consider geting your self a used cheap to run small banger for your local commuter car & get yourself a much newer much nicer truck for your travels & times when the truck is really needed?
For my home car I have an 11 year old Toyota Yaris. Never done anything to it but change 1 set of plugs & change the oil & filter on a regular basis. Drives like an oversized gocart but for 30 minutes max per trip I sure don't need anything else. 35MPG is sweet too.
The truck is a different story. We spend alot of time & drive many miles in that truck.
