    They have a truck and SUV. The truck is kinda neat because it has a compartment at the front of the bed that can mount pullout accessories like a kitchenette for use while camping.

    They’re actually a bit cheaper at around $80k-$90k which is a lot of money no doubt, but not out of line for other trucks that also won’t be used for ‘real truck stuff’ like 90% of truck owners.

      Nobody is taking a 90k luxury truck camping- sorry. The interior would be ruined after a single fishing trip, nevermind actually going off onto dirt roads (or no-roads,)

      These are being sold to city-dwellers that want to convince people they’re not city dwellers. (Same as the trucks you mentioned.)

        How would the interior be ruined after a fishing or camping trip? This makes me think you’ve never been fishing or camping.

          Mud, sand rocks from wading, etc.

          Unless you’re talking about taking kids off a pier, fishing is not a clean sport.
