I've been moto only for brief periods in earlier times as a young person. It worked but had a lot of downsides: getting soaked and very cold in bad weather, limited passenger and cargo capabilities. Now as a homeowner, dad, husband , entrepreneur, etc. , I find I need a car or truck too often to be without one. Now that I am retired from full-time work I ride more than I drive and definitely agree that motorcycling is a great transportation mode if the condition permit it. Going moto only may work for you. I would look critically at how often you need your truck ,how much it costs to rent and how convenient is it. I also try to use bicycling as another transportation option but it is even more limited than moto only. Good luck and let us know what you decide to do.
