As someone who now works in finance/investing, I am so jealous that I was broke for most of college.

I missed the best bull market ever.

Awesome bragging post!

After 25 years, I quit smoking, cold turkey, with no withdrawal symptoms or cravings.

I got the SR5 Offroad edition - Has a 5.7 liter V8 iForce engine in it. The computer tells me my fuel economy is only a little over 12 MPG currently, so the thing is a gas guzzler, but I would imagine it can pull just about anything.

Its fairly modified... The truck is black, so I plasti dipped all my emblems black + front bumper + grille + back bumper (murdered out), added a black tool box on the back, black frontier brush guard, full length black nerf bars (step up to get in truck), 3 inch lift, black rims, 34’ all terrain tires, air bag suspension, towing package... and after work today I am buying some KC lights to attach to the brush guard (will look sick). I’ll post some pictures after I wash it this weekend, I don’t have any with the tool box and brush guard attached.

It's a 2015 and has about 15,000 miles on it. 1 previous owner and they had a 5th wheel in the bed, but it is no longer there. Truck is a beast - I call it Drogo - roommate calls it The General.
I'm not hacking on toys, I use to have one, a mini, looong ago when they were all the rage. I could hitch a small trailer to it, though not through anything tough, not like my later 4x4 could do. If it fits your needs then that's a win.

If they had 5th wheel hardware on it, likely they found out that it's a pain to pull in a toy close to the limit, so sold/traded up. Toy has a ~10k limit, while most good 5ths are close to that, some over. Chev/GMC is at 16k, will easily pull 90% of 5ths up, including modest tractor loads. Here's a chart. And tons of youtube pulling tests. Example: it couldn't pull one of these. Even the Chev/GMC would struggle a bit if it were fully loaded. But just depends on intended use, and sounds like good use for a general work truck.
