Infinity plus one one -keeping your money in your pocket.
Not many could make having a beach truck and a clean ride to work thats dependable pay off.
If you look at it like this: Wait one more year before you jump into downsizing to just two vehicles between ya.... the urge may pass. Especially if you don't have a bunch of repairs to the older two.
Anything I have that is servicable stays with me. When Its not servicable and isn't making good business sense, then I lay it down permanently.
you're not in that situation. You have not indicated its putting you in a bind to have a truck, your wife might be tempted to say so, but her grocery getter is the one with the payments, which is ok too. We always have one vehicle with a payment, one that has plenty of service life and aint costing in major repair, and a beach truck. We worked up to this cycle, and its works well.
OR-
WHAT are you going to do with a minivan or wannabe truck SUV thing when you have a wet dog? Can you move your sister and her refrigerator with a Jeep?
Being able to tow 3500 lbs? Not a compromise I'd tolerate.
