Not at all, I’m for basically no restrictions on those items you mentioned.

And are generally rated as trucks because well, they basically are. Truck chassis and motor on them, mainly.

They do make this style, but the single cab option isn’t better, it’s far worse. We have dog, back packs, sport equipment. The truck bed is always filled with tools, construction debris and the like that is actually pretty toxic (drywall dust, asbestos even sometimes, mold remediation debris, etc) and needs to stay back there. There isn’t enough time in the day to go get the kids to and from school and travel to the jobsite and clean and clear the vehicle. Insist there were a better choice but there isn’t for some.

It’s easy now to imagine an ancient advanced civilization that destroyed itself.
Also reminds me of a comic I read called print crime.

I use a 4 door short bed truck, and here’s why. I need to pick up my kids half the days of the week. I don’t have a van anymore because I do demo work and I got tired of riding inside with the dust. I just build a wood rack if i need to haul more. I’d get a 4 door, long bed truck, which would be the best ever except it’s just too dang long to park. So when the kids aren’t around I fold up the rear seats and the tool boxes go in there. Is what it is. I long for the days when I drove a car with a toolbag in the trunk.

The thing is, it can and will be abused either way it goes, and keeping people alive has more benefit so far than killing them or letting them die…
