A picture of a hand holding remote car keys pointed at a white pickup truck. Below that is the text:

    I imagine it’s pretty much the same in UK - a lot of the people using them for work might be better off with a small van.

    But then, they don’t look ‘manly’ do they?

      What does a van offer that a small truck wouldn’t? Other than opportunity for passengers. Since its a work vehicle passengers isn’t generally a concern since basically anything you can buy can handle atleast 2 people. Covered space? Get a cap. Need more Clearance for a fridge you intend on plugging in right away? take the cap off. Over sized item in more ways than one like a couch or bed? you can drop and remove the tailgate. I have yet to see a small van that can be all that customizable?
