Does a landlord need a pickup truck?

[Josh Lyons]

My wife and I are planning to get a second vehicle. We've been able to get by with one to save more money. We're planning to buy our first rental property asap and plan to manage it ourselves, at least to start.  I've been thinking that getting a pickup could help our landlord duties since we might have to move couches, washing machines, etc sometimes.  What is your experience if you manage your own properties?  Would you say a truck is a "need" as a landlord?  Thanks.
