If wishes were horses, beggars would ride. "Thinks he wants" sounds like a great candidate for a Ford LTD or Toyota corolla with 5 speed. Why would anyone getting married buy a truck unless they can write it off for business purposes? Inefficient, impractical, expensive. Maybe one of those little utility Vans if he needs a work truck. I say this having driven pickups for about the first 15 years of my licensure.
I think I want a Gulfstream 5. Can anyone help?
