Of course, we also own a 2000 Toyota Sienna minivan, so I'm half guilty.

As for pick-up trucks, I don't think I know anyone who drives one who doesn't work in a job where such a vehicle is necessary. I know plenty of people with pick-ups but they all do construction, electrical work, plumbing, painting, landscaping, etc. I can't think of anyone I know with an office job who drives a pick-up.
I work in an office and drive a honda ridgeline.

It has 5 seatbelts and a bed I carry soccer equipment in, and take things on vacation with.

soccer equipment would fit in an SUV, but it smells up the interior.
