DH wants to spend his employee car allowance on this. I think it's tacky and low class

He wants to switch it up and get this, a "luxury" pickup truck, which I think on a 1 to 10 tacky scale, is at least an 8 or 9. I think it's not only tacky, it's something for hillbilly pensioners in their 60s or 70s. And no, outside of Costco and Home Depot, we don't ever haul anything.

Does he also have wraparound sunglasses and a goatee?

I don't see that it's any tackier than a giant SUV. Expensive, gas guzzlers that advertise their owners' insecurity and selfishness. Would you be okay with it if that truck bed was an unnecessary third row of seats in an SUV?

Her husband is a straight male.

Perhaps this was mentioned earlier but I did not read the entire thread:

OP's husband ought to trade HER in for someone who doesn't say things like "tacky and low class."

These things are the new BMW of announcing oneself as a clueless bad driver. Tell him to get a real car.

This is such an odd post. It's a truck. If he likes it, he should get it.
