The physical size can be an issue , with an 8' bed it turns like the Queen Mary. I never go through drive thru's it's not worth trying . But when you need a truck you need a truck . Sure it's not a Porsche but that's why I have the Porsche 😊 . They can co-exist .
Same here.

Love driving both my duallys. Yeah the size is a PITA fitting places sometimes but, that's part of the deal. Sure, both are the upper end, more comfy models, but they are still real trucks. Hell, On long trips my wife would rather ride in the trucks , instead of the Mercedes. (altough she prefers the Ram over the Superduty. the Ford is too loud with the 5'exhaust...)
