You're going to purchase a 22ft truck just for Ikea trips? How often are you going to Ikea for large furniture?

Perhaps there are people who don't keep a fleet of differently-sized trucks so as not to overshoot.

Right, so these people are going to drive a 22ft truck everywhere because they might go to Ikea at some point in the next 5-10 years?

I went to Ikea with my Honda Civic and strapped my order to the roof of my car. It was awkward for 1 day instead of being awkward every single day.

Maybe they're doing work that involves moving a bunch of furniture around and they get a portion of it from IKEA?
