I've moved stuff like that with my wifes old Matrix lol. Pop up hatch glass is awesome. Now I just toss it on the roof of the Rav or pop the glass on my Grand Cherokee. Unless you're doing a lot of big jobs you can get away without a truck pretty easily, but even then I'd rather buy a utility trailer. Way easier to load and unload and you don't have to drive a truck all the time.

Well if I had a truck I could grab a box load of soil for top dressing, materials, etc.
I don’t need it as much now that I’m done most of my Reno’s but I would have been screwed when I was in the midst of it.
An example of how much more shit costs to get it delivered etc.
Landscape depot on grandview charges like $50 for a yard of sand soil mix if they load it into your box. The same load delivered was like $180.
For me it’s not just that type of stuff, I’d be more into buying toys like dirt bikes etc. if I had a truck, whereas having only a car now, it’s completely out of the question
