I do. My family ran a house construction company. We never bought anything but vans because:
materials are expensive, and it rains.
Tools are expensive, and it rains.
Materials are expensive, and people steal.
Tools are expensive, and people steal.
Shit falls out of pickup beds all the time. Every fucking day a load is lost on a highway.
Most pickups can’t even carry 4x8 sheets with the tail up. Poser work trucks.
Vans have a lower loading height, and can be accessed from 3 points.
FWD vans can actually be driven in snow, as opposed to a stupid design that puts the drive wheels at the wrong end of the vehicle, which means poor ground clearance because of the differential and driveshaft, so they mount bigger wheels. Dumb on top of dumb.
I understand the constant TV commercials about payload with Sam Elliot narrations but get fucking serious, most construction trades do not use their own vehicles, they just commute to the work site.
