Who'd like to share their opinion on aesthetics? 

 

Colour of canopy versus colour of vehicle. Has to match 100%? Black or dark grey canopy on what colour body? White canopy on what colour body? What would you accept, what would you think is a crime against motoring? 

 

Predictably enough, this is an ongoing point of discussion between my wife and I, and I'd like to know exactly how misguided I am.

Id say, black or dark grey canopy is ok on any vehicle colour. 

Coloured canopy needs to match, looks awful if not.

White canopy pretty much only ok on white truck, might getaway with it on grey or muted colours maybe.

I'd agree with most of that, I think white or off-white could work with a few more things though. 

 

I did annoy her with an advert for a blue truck paired with a separate advert for a red canopy... just need a yellow bonnet and some mismatched doors and we are good to go!

I don’t see how stopping people buying a dcpu on the firm and giving it to the wife as a family car is hitting the normal working man. 
It is closing a tax dodge. 
 

Using a sledgehammer to crack an egg is never the best idea Mick

That is undoubtedly happening in some cases but not in the majority I know including myself. The way they have done it hits everyone regardless if your need is valid. In fact those who stick with them out of necessity will get hammered the most, not exactly a recipe for economic growth.

Surely people can just work a bit harder to afford to be able to tax their truck? The only reason I see where you need a double cab is to carry workers, if that is the case they should be factored into the cost of a job.
