Actually, having one for a second car makes a lot of sense. All those short trips to the store, commuting, etc. I would still have a truck. Got to have a truck.
Are you old enough to remember those ubiquitous electric carts that old folks used to drive? I think they are no longer street legal. I haven't seen one in decades. But our elderly next door neighbors had one for runs to the local supermarket. It was extremely practical. There were usually a few of them parked in the supermarket lot. Maybe I can find a picture of one.
