One of these are not for work. You don't risk a dent on a $60,000 show piece.
I saw a dude on YouTube complaining that his fairly new $85k Dodge Ram work truck was breaking down. I don't think he expected people to call him an idiot for spending that much on a work truck. I'm sure he did actually use it to haul shit around since he is a farmer but probably $35k of that is comfort stuff.
My wife's family runs their farms with motorcycles and tractors. They seem to be doing fine. Agreed he is a not wise.
If you are buying brand new, $60K is fairly base model now (for a pickup truck at least).
Why are you saying it like it's something normal you fat burger.
