You haven't proven anything, I was aware that monster "vans" built on a truck chassis exist.
You're making the claim, you back it up.
I've done my part, you're the one moving the goal posts. The burden of proof now falls onto you.
The goalpost has remained in the same location the whole time. Why is a van inherently better than a ute?
Nope, that question again goes way beyond your earlier disingenuous questions, you've the most the goalposts even further this time. So yeah, go waste your own time.
You should be more honest with yourself though. The only reason that you act like a vanity truck is a better utility vehicle than a van, is your ego. All your disingenuous trolling just helps to underline the point that's it not about which vehicle is actually most suitable for the job, it's all about satisfying that ego.
And there is nothing wrong with satisfying ego, everyone makes purchases that might not be the most practical, but which are simply more fun too them. But when you do, you don't have to make a fool out of yourself by pretending that your decision was based on practicality while everyone can see that it's about vanity.
I've explained, multiple times, using small words, why a ute is often a better option than a van.
You, on the other hand, have written unhinged text walls ranting about ego, while ignoring the very simple and straightforward case I've made.
You need help.
You were too stupid to realize that vans exist in many forms and configurations until I showed you that they did. You calling me stupid is not very convincing.
I am well aware of the existence of many configurations of van. I drive one for work, I know what they can and can't do.
