Oh man, those guys are fun to wind up.
None of them have ever used a vehicle for anything other than personal transport, they seem to think everyone with a pickup truck is driving it purely for the sake of their ego, even if they have a rural property, or need it for towing.
They don't seem to understand the concept of towing capacity, and seem to think a van can do anything a pickup can do, including tow 3+ tonnes and travel off road.
Carrying on with the anti pickup line, they made a post making fun of a Ford Ranger, because they had a ladder on the roof that wouldn't fit in the bed. It was an extension ladder almost as long as the vehicle. Another poster pointed out that some cargo vans have storage above the driver's head, meaning the ladder could go in the van. This is a vehicle that would have been taller, longer, and wider than the Ranger.
They're completely out of touch with reality.
