I would never buy one. But it might make sense to have a comfortable highway cruiser in Montana or West Texas or someplace where you drive 4 hours to town and do it frequently. Now finally a self-driving Tesla might be an even better choice, however.
As for the hitch that has to be a joke. I hope?

Generally, agreed. But, a farmer could own one if he also used it to transport newborn calves or to drive in the field with seed or for harvest use. Over the years I've seen a number of Cadillacs pressed into similar service and it all turned out OK.

My BIL purchased a '53 Ford F750,, and a '53 Lincoln a month apart.
The F750 blew the engine during the 1954 harvest,, he needed that truck.
They pulled the engine out of the Lincoln and put it in the truck, it must have been close to identical,,,
So, that truck had a Lincoln engine for the remainder of its grain hauling life (20 years, until 1973)

We used to haul calves in the back of a three door Toyota Tercel back in the 1970's Worked great until one almost got loose and almost rolled us.
Back in Bangor, Maine in 1977 I saw a nice looking luxury car parked in front of the bank with a good sized pig in the back seat. It didn't seem to bother anyone and no one else seemed concerned so I just waked by.

Someone showing up at a sale barn with calves, etc in the back seat of a car or some other unusual method of transporting them to auction should cause some red flags to go up.

Spotted this brain trust Saturday morning, on my way to a job site.
In case it's not obvious, it's not chained down at all.
And it's running.
I see this all the time up here.
Saw another guy (different rig) doing the same thing last night, on our way out to dinner.
What is with these idiots?

Just lazy guys going from job to job trying to save 5 minutes by not chaining down
About 2 years ago, 60 miles north of Bangor in the town of Lee we saw a Taurus with 2 goats in the back.
