I feel like you’re an asshole if you buy a 22 foot long pickup to take to IKEA.
If you’re going to buy furniture surely you’d need something bigger if you want to take it home yourself?
It's Ikea, king of the flat-pack. You could fit literally an entire room's worth of Ikea furniture in a subcompact hatchback, depending on which pieces you buy.
(Okay so that's on top of a tiny car, not in it, but you get the idea.)
That looks very similar to how I got a bunch of flatpak furniture home on my Subaru Forester with the roof rack. I can haul tons of stuff in my Subi without much trouble. I just remember to bring some ropes and bungie cords if it's going on top and we're good.
If it's too much (I'm looking at you, 12' firewall sheetrock - that project was a removed) I did the sane thing and got it delivered.
