I disagree with a couple of the things you say. The two of us have three vehicles. One of them is a full sized four wheel drive pickup. It sits most of the time. Instead I drive a 29 MPG 1983 Escort which is paid for, and not worth having full coverage insurance on. Another thing that can save money is a trailer made from a small foreign pickup. It can be pulled behind one of the cars for when something needs to be hauled, but it is light enough to not need the full sized pickup. It also allows the pickup to not be worn out doing nearly no work. Rust, and therefore just plain time, is not a factor here (Montana), so the pickup will wear out rather than disappear into a pile of rust.
