For now its mostly just to ride around in. I keep stuff stored in the bed, and once in a blue moon I actually need the bed for something. I just prefer the ride of a truck. But I got it two years ago more as a long term investment instead of an immediate need. Mostly wanted one for when i bought a house. My old truck was starting to slowly fall apart and I was hoping to have a house by now. So i bit the bullet then, but unfortunately the housing market went crazy and still no house. Hoping to finally be in the market end of the summer/beginning of fall.
