Actually quite a few, I usually see more of people driving what they can afford/be comfortable with than what they need. For example I saw an explorer pulling a ~34' travel trailer, the poor explorer's rear was bottomed out and the front was lifted to the point any more lift would have the tires off the ground. But I see your point, you like big powerful trucks, as do most truck owners. Just with the cost of purchase, diesel, and the factoring of mpg it's nice to have an actual purpose for the truck every once in a while (or more often).
