And sure, for the exact target demographic of carpenters and such that's... false.

What you do is get a regular car that's great for everyday stuff and buy a trailer. You get a flatbed that's what, 4x the size of the one on your truck? And it's cheap, at knee-level, and detachable, so you only pay the cost of inconvenience and extra fuel when you use it, not all the time.

You won't use it much anyway, because a regular car fits more than you think.



Millions of people in the US do their own carpentry. In fact, there are orders of magnitude more DIY carpenters than there are professionals.

You can also hook a trailer up to a truck, giving yourself even more capacity. Many people do this. However, people in urban or suburban areas may not have trailer storage areas.
