Why pickups?

It can also have a lot to do with what you do out of work

Tipping pickup!! The way forward 😃

A pickup isn't a main arb vehicle. It's a good addition to the fleet though.

 

Good for subbies too. And small jobs.

That's probably the best "not beating around the bush" answer forgive my waffling haha

I keep trying to convince myself I need a super/king cab tipper, but chip capacity is too limited.

Running one as well as the Transit would tick a lot of boxes, but at a price.

The Transit is the best single vehicle that suits my business model.

Or maybe I've built my business model around the vehicle?

To run the kids to school is what you mean.

Used to drive a pickup everywhere until my commute to harvesting sites just drank fuel for the sake of carrying tools and I didn't need 4wd. Got rid. Estate car saves me on average £60/week. Just have to walk a couple of hundred metres to the machines in the winter; big deal.

You and your 4wd. I drove my empty lwb Cabstar along here unassisted. Those ruts are so deep the front axle was hitting the ridges quite hard.

I know people that could get a 4x4 stuck along this track.

What boots is it wearing Peasgood?

[Marc Lewis]

I do mostly powerline clearance and have to cross fields most days. 4x4 is the answer and because i often have to travel an hour or more each way, i want something that drives well and is comfy. It ticks those boxes. Tows the chipper really well too.
