Precisely. Now that I am back I nEurope. A kitted out van is the de facto vehicle of trades. It’s been a few years since I moved from the US. So perhaps the trades have now gotten the memo.

As I say, I see vanishingly few cases where a truck is better than a van for a trades person or the job site. And of course even less so for a layman.
