    Do you know what people in Denmark, the Netherlands, and similar RV-heavy countries in Europe use to haul an RV with a family of four to six? Anything from a hatchback to a minivan depending on the amount of people. A truck is wildly inefficient for anything (except for the modest sized ones which hardly gets made anymore).

      Not to dissuade your point or anything, but from reading their comment I’m picturing one of those large campers that you really only see in NA, like a tour bus that you have to tow. I’m no expert on towing capacity but I think one would actually have a use case for a large truck in that situation. Totally agree that they’re utterly overkill for just about any other situation though.

        You nailed it. The thing is basically a tractor trailer. The truck isn’t far off from being a semi.

            He looked into that, but apparently it wasn’t the best option for his family.
