There are a ton of contractors in cities, in the Bay Area they probably make more than tech workers. There are also construction workers _everywhere_.

There are mosquito fleet trucks in SF whose whole purpose is to collect recycling and take it to the recycling center.

In western cities there are off-road enthusiasts who camp at places you can’t get to without a modified vehicle and winch (no crowded campsites).

Some people just like trucks and will buy them because why not?

Backpackers seem to manage just fine.

  • Right and both methods of transit are a hobby. There are plenty of OHV vehicles people live out of as well.
