If/when I get a new truck, I'm debating on whether to keep an extra. It's not worth a lot of money and I'm thinking it would be nice to have an extra vehicle for when one of the other cars needs service, etc. Do y'all keep an extra?

1998 Tacoma that sees action for hauling and hunting only. I only buy Hondas and Toyotas so I very rarely need it outside of its backup purpose.

An extra is nice. I'm trying to get my old F150 straightened out. It'll be an extra, then my son will start out in it when he turns 16 in a year and a half.

No but thinking about it.

It is hard to justify that having an extra vehicle is the ideal optimization of resources. Both of our vehicles are less than 2 years old though. If our vehicles were older and less reliable it perhaps would make more sense.

yes. primary Tacoma, back up Tacoma.

Not smart financially considering insurance, tax/tax, extra maintenance. But makes me feel better about things.

I've got my '14 F150 and my K5 blazer. I mostly just drive the K5 during hunting season or when I'm feeling extra American. If worse comes to worse, I've always got my company truck too.

my wifes car is a year old. I drive older vehicles so I need backup. Especially for the mail route. If it was for the mail I would not have my Jeep or crv.

Yep, our extra would be my '98 Chevy 3/4 ton 4X4 hunting /farm truck. I'd just as soon drive it as anything else unless gas is $4 bucks a gallon, not much fun then.

The tag for my current vehicle is only $38 and I think the insurance will only be a couple hundred bucks a year, so I may keep it around.

Trying to decide this same thing myself. Not sure if I want to sell my car and get a truck to do everything, or keep my car and buy a cheaper hunting truck or SUV.

I would go cheaper truck and put an aggressive tire on it.
The car will be cheaper to operate, cheaper consumables and going to assume a nicer ride.

I kinda had a similar realization myself, the BMW isn't going anywhere and I don't want to spend truck money so I will be towing an ATV with whatever vehicle I go with.

The 33mpg is nice, and it hasn't given me any trouble yet (83k) miles. I'm leaning towards cheaper hunting truck, but I don't want to pay insurance on two vehicles.

You priced newer nicer used trucks...insurance on a $5K truck is CHEAP compared to a car note on a newer truck.

An older hunting truck will have pretty well fully depreciated so insurance should be very cheap.

Yep, a backup vehicle doesn't have to be a Maybach. Something like the Honda Pilot the guy has in Classifieds is fine. Well kept, inexpensive, and reliable.

You never know when your new vehicle is gonna start crapping up these days with the lack of craftmanship and low-bidder parts they put in them. You might be down multiple times for weeks while the dealership gives you the runaround.

We keep two daily drivers and two backups.

I have an 04 Tundra that's my daily driver AND hunting truck. I'm thinking about buying a newer used car as a daily driver and reducing the Ins on the truck for a farm rig only.

I'm without an extra right now and hate it. Won't be much longer until we are back to having an extra.

My Daddy was a car dealer so I grew up with the idea of having multiple vehicles. That part hasn't changed. I have rarely only owned the same number of vehicles as there are drivers in the house.

Yes, and it is absolutely worth it! And I'm not even talking about having it as a backup in case something happens to one. I have a 2010 Ford Fusion with 220k. Only carry liability insurance. It gets twice the MPG's my truck gets, so you can figure for every $20 I get in gas for it I just saved $20 since I didn't have to put $40 in my truck. Maintenance is cheaper on it than my 4x4 truck. Keeps miles low on my truck which increases resale value. What's another door ding to my car's door? Nothing! But I am anal about my truck. Tires for the car are cheaper. I don't mind jumping in the car if I have been working outside and gotten pretty dirty, so it keeps my truck cleaner. And for what little I drive my truck, I have it insured as driven low miles per year which is a cheaper rate. I'm sure I could add more, but you get the idea.

Heck no, my truck and wife's SUV. That's plenty. If for some reason I need an extra, way easier and cheaper to rent one than keep up one.

See, I feel like it's both harder and more expensive to rent. I had to do it recently and I was driving around in some budget car for 3 days and it cost me a lot, plus it's hard to get a ride to where you want to go after you drop it back off.

Yes! I rotate through 4 vehicles. I will always have at least one extra for backup and versatility.

Yes, and it is usually a toy vehicle of some kind. Right now it's a Miata and a Triumph Bonneville in the garage.

Yes as long as the vehicle is paid for it's good to have an extra it isn't eating anything.

I kept my 05 GMC when I bought my 2015 GMC. I keep two trucks and my wife has Honda van. It's always nice to have a backup vehicle. The only problem is people like to ask to borrow it when they need a extra vehicle!
