It’s honestly bizarre to me just how out of touch with reality this is…
Explain to me why the large construction project parking site outside my window is full of pickups. They are only used to commute to the site, for actual work, they use company vehicles.
Of all the choices for a work vehicle, pickups are the dumbest choice, which is why real contractors use vans.
It’s all trades cosplay, fueled by tax rules that push trades to buy heavy trucks. So all they money they save in tax, they can spend in fuel.
Tradey here! Work vans are absolutely not the best work vehicle; it’s highly dependent on the trade/style of work. Not sure why this is so often repeated.
They might have to move large power tools to and from work in their pickup truck beds, and you wouldn’t see these when the trucks are parked because they’re using the tools.

The rest is fairly accurate.

You’re saying these tradecraft don’t use their personal trucks to haul shit outside of their day job?
