Trucks are downright cheap compared to hipster or rich contractor Sprinters.
…Actually I should say rich “Subcontractors” because we don’t have the water to build but plenty or rich high tech people who won’t blink to dodge taxes and sink a quarter of a million into a bathroom or kitchen. lol
What happened to single van trucks with large and low beds with decent mileage?
I expect to be a handyman with state contractors license and I read I may need to have a gas guzzler to write off of. I would rather buy tools.
But the Transit line seems somewhat more affordable but still far more than trucks locally.
If I go truck I want a small one and not one designed to carry a soccer team which is basically a luxury suv pretending to be a truck.
Many multiseat, four door trucks are so nice they aren’t designed to get scratched or work and belong to the Range Rover club. I don’t need leather seats, mahogany and Brazilian rosewood, and a supercomputer.
I am liking a stripped down Santa Cruz.

Everything is so pricey now a days
Those old single van trucks aren’t common anymore, most folks just go with a pickup or cargo van and write off the gas.
