    Trucks are for every tradesperson that does the things you lack the time, training or tools to do when something breaks at your residence. Trucks help you move.

      Trucks don’t do that, vans do.

      In Europe every tradesperson drives a van because it is a lot more efficient and can haul way more than trucks ever can.

        Well then I guess I need a new vehicle because I’m a handyman and I use a truck. Dealing with a van full of stuff and trying to slide drywall in is kind of difficult. However, I can easily snap them on top of the bed of my truck and get moving. And it cost me a whole lot less to maintain this truck than it would to maintain a van. You ever tried carrying a ton of gravel in a van? I wouldn’t. Takes much longer to load and unload that way.

      And if said tradesperson doesn’t want their equipment to get wet in the rain they get a van instead.
