80 Checker Marathon. It's a car, but its big. Diesel too..
grew up doing construction, and still in it. always had a need for a truck so that is all i've ever owned. currently in a chevy silverado 4x4, and a gun owner.
I believe in stealth. So I drive a minivan. Everything is under the radar in a minivan. (Good thing I'm not looking for girls, a minivan doesn't cut it).
Honda now, about to trade it on a new one. Another one.
1) It's a matter of style whether it's called an 'SUV' or a truck.
A fullsize GMC Suburban or Ford explorer may indeed be a 'truck'
What the owner calls it says something. If they call it a truck, NEVER
an SUV, they are probably OK. And they probably own a gun or two.
2) A Jeep Wrangler or any of it's military and CJ forebearers is by definition a truck.
My take, a 'truck' owner will be a gun owner. The reverse is less easy to state.
Pickup man here. I've owned two of them, actually...first one was a 1985 F-150, and the second (my current ride) is a 2006 Dodge Dakota. I would have gotten a full-size, but I wanted something with a lower note for a while. I hauled a bigger gun safe home in it, and for all I know that'll be the biggest thing I'll put in the bed, but still, I'm a country boy. Gotta have a truck, no matter if it's a smaller one. The Cummins or Power Stroke will come in due time. In between was a 1998 Accord with a V-6. Fun ride (really brought the Mario Andretti out of me even with that auto tranny), great gas mileage, but unfortunately I had to get rid of it as I did not have the $3,000 to get the head gaskets replaced. I miss it a little, but I sure like my Dodge.
And yeah, I have guns. Several, with more to come. I have already decided on my BAG Day purchase.
Yes, I own pickup trucks, but that is unrelated to gun ownership in my case. I was a gun owner long before I was a Commercial Driver, before getting into trucking, I owned only cars, usually old cars. Once I got into trucking I realized just how impractical it is to haul 8 drive tires or a 1000 pound engine block in a '72 Impala. Once I got my first F-150 I realized just how handy they are, and as a homeowner I would keep at least one even if I left trucking.

Going back: Seeing as how I got involved in shooting long before owning my first motor vehicle... and the first vehicle I ever put on the road was a motorcycle...
On the one hand: I've driven 4x4 pickups for everyday use for the last twelve years now. Before that, cars always filled that role.
On the other hand: My summertime for fun motor vehicles (when I can find the time) are street motorcycles and have been for over three decades. For four wheeled summer fun a minty '78 T/A 6.6 Hurst package Trans Am has filled the bill for twenty two years now.
Don't give a whit about folks think.
Yep, I got a truck, grew up around trucks.
Not that some folks did not then - as they still do now drive a sedan down a dirt farm/ranch road.
Anti-Gun folks just don't "it" and with all their Stereotypes.
I mean just because the Anti-Gun women got a vagina don't make 'em whores...
Just because the Anti-Gun menfolk got a penis don't make 'em customers of whores, or rapists.
I own a truck, I shoot, I smoke, I use a Zippo. I have a computer and do RKBA and other things...
If that gives some folks the weebie-jeebies and they run screaming like little girls - Great. I don't want them breathing my air anyway.
I drive a 1980's turbo dodge thats been tweaked for a little more boost. Probably fits a few stereotypes but I'm not sure that gun owner is one of them.
Currently drive an Avalanche, but have driven a regular pick-up off and on for 20+ yrs. Heck I remember when having a gun rack over the back window was almost a given. Now I don't even try to draw attention to myself by putting stickers and such on vehicles because of the attitudes of most people in general, outside of the rural areas. Seems like if you live in the city, most people can't relate to why anyone would need such things as firearms.
