  • I guess you also didn’t notice the tow bar in the back. Huh. Trucks tend to sit high. So when you load them the truck levels out. Instead of squatting down in the rear. Also I don’t know if this truck is a legit tow truck but if it is, say you had a family of 5 or 6 are on a road trip in your grand caravan. Get into an accident with a dumb shit wild deer/fucking phesant/ windigo w/e or brake down cause budy guy at the last gas station was dumping a bit to much home brew corn gas in the tanks. A regular tow truck fits only 4 people. Plus driver. So now you got to wait for another veichle. Out there shits so remote that could be 30 min or 2hrs depending on the stretch of road. Now you got this pigfugly monster. Your Pacifica/oddesy/Siena is on the hook. You and your family are all in the warm cab and no one is freezing. Because it’s January. Yeah I forgot to mention it January in Alberta -30ºC


  • Hey dipshit there are only 4 places in the world that have oil sands. Canada, Kazakhstan, Russia, and Venezuela. So ther is no need for shit like this in Europe. Also the natural resource exploration pales in comparison to the rest of the world. Because Europe imports most of their natural resources from places that use “emotional support veichles”. Also in europe, more often then not your job site isn’t going to be 500km+ away from your origin. I’ve been in a many vans, fuck if I’m going to sit in a cramped ass tin can for 8hrs listening to road noise on an uncomfortable ass captains chair. When I can just sit in my lazy boy recliner in a quiet cab where I don’t have to yell to talk to guy beside me.


  • No ground clearance on van, gona get stuck in the mud. less payload on van, can’t just drop a skid of what ever or extra long things like hydraulic cylinders into a van with out akward fucking around. less tow capacity on van, notice the tow bar on the back… What are you gona put a welder, diesel cans, gas cans, pales of hydraulic oil for equipment/ slip tanks, pumps and what not into the van too with the occupants? What about the greasy and oily ass clothes. Throw em in the van too? So they stain and fill the cab with VOCs?

    This is a purpose built one off, and alot of you are out of touch with how work gets done. Not evey job is hauling standard 8x4 drywall. Alot more trades work than just slinging plaster around.











  • Try understanding. The road was already designed to be safe at 80kph. They lower it down to 50kph because of folks such as the ones who brake at the green light because the count down timer for the walk signal hit zero. Or the ones who don’t know where the fuck they are going, panick miss their turn and slam on the fucking brakes in the middle of a 3 lane road instead of pulling a u-turn 100m up the road. Then they try the bulshit of traffic calming shit by retiming the lights so every light in 10km stretch will be red when you get to it. Fucking phenomenal way to prevent irritation.
