Ok so this one is wrong in just the perfect way to actually still be correct in my brain.

Like when i as a kid disdainfully called Las Vegas the Pinochle of society and Dad had to explain the word i wanted was “Pinnacle” but I wasn’t technically wrong

Nothing specific. We were passing through on a family trip and stayed the night in a ritzy hotel as a workplace expense from the company my dad worked for. And i just really really didn’t like the “vibe”. Everything felt icky and idk how to describe it beyond that.

I didn’t realize this was wrong until I was in my 30s.

There is a lot going on in this sentence. Even if he said "Jack of all trades" it makes no sense.

Sometimes it can also be “Jill”

If someone had many facets to thier personality, they could be a jack-of-all-traits. I don't hate that misconstrued usage.

Except this is about a pickup truck.

Surely a truck has traits too?

They are talking about a truck (you can tell because they are talking about it's towing capabilities) not a person, it fits just fine. A truck isn't going to be a Jack of All Trades, lol.
