Pickup or Cargo Van?

**KzScrapper** · 07-22-2012, 08:45 AM

I have and use both, but use the van the most. I like being able to lock up my tools quickly and easily, and the security of closing the doors when having to make multiple trips to load it up in a strange area. The other thing I like is the lower cargo area in the van when loading heavy objects. Volume wise the largest load to date has been 3 fridges, dryer and a old dishwasher with steel tub.

On a side note...scrapping with a topper on a pick up is a PITA imo.

3 fridges, a dryer, and a dishwasher? Are you using a cargo van?
