My point is you should probably forget trying to automate the world you currently live in. Don't think there will be "trucks" because you need something hauled. There will probably be a hauling service that you order when you need it. The world is going to get smaller as networks increase in power.
Things will become more streamlined and efficient. What you imagine as a truck will be little more than a diesel tractor for hauling heavy items.
If you need that deer hauled out of the woods, you will probably be able to order a drone to come pick it up and take it where you would like it to go
Meh. Are you holding to the 15 year time frame.
I think he has a pretty valid point. It will heavily depend on lifestyle imo. Not that a country boy wouldnt want a drone to pick up his deer, yea, he definitely would.
The "hauling" service idea I don't see though. Not for something is pretty much guaranteed to put serious wear and tear on a vehicle. Is the hauling service just going to be ok with it getting scratches and dents that just naturally come from those things.

Car companies aren't going along with this seeing that many of them are starting to lower the amount of cars they sell and making larger lines of trucks and SUVs.

If I am not going to be able to own a vehicle in the future answer a few questions for me please. I don’t live in a city. I like to hunt and fish, go to the camp, need to pull boats, trailers etc. Many times I decide last minute I want to go fishing. Is there always going to be a truck available to come get my boat and pull it to the launch. Is this truck going to be able to navigate, in 4wd many times, to and from the launch? Am I going to be able to “drive” it at all or how will it know how to back up to trailer and back up properly in different launches? What about when I do yard work and cut trees etc and haul it to the burn pile? I destroy my old truck. The bed is all bent and beat up. Is there going to be old beater vehicles? What about while I am fishing? Is the vehicle going to stay at the launch hooked up to my trailer? What about hauling dead deer and hogs around? Am I going to have to wash the blood out of the truck before it goes back into the pool? I hunt 50 Miles from my house, 17 Miles of which is gravel road behind two locked gates. Am I going to have to pay for the truck for the entire weekend and if not how will the truck navigate muddy roads and through locked gates to come get me and all my stuff? Sorry for rambling but just trying to understand how lots of people are going to live their lives without being able to own a vehicle that fits their lifestyle. One of the things I read about future autonomous cars is to fully implement all vehicles would have to be driverless. Can’t mix driver / driverless on the road.
You are overthinking this and trying to tailor it to your very specific personal situation. These situations tend to work themselves out over time with technology. We don't have all the answers now, but the landline analogy someone used is a good one.
My best guess at answering your question, is that there will be dedicated roads that SDVs will drive on and no regular vehicles will be allowed on those roads. There will likely be off-roads, etc., where you would be able to drive your own vehicle.

I wish they had a streaming service where you can watch the national telecast of a game and have it synced with your team's radio feed. Technologically it's already doable. I just wish the Big Four leagues and the NCAA would offer it.
Pause your DVR and turn up the sound of Saints Radio.

I believe the layout of cars will change dramatically. Without the need for a drivers seat, controls will be drastically different. Cars will become more akin to a moving living room with seat belts. The elimination or dramatic reduction of car insurance will be a welcome change
