    Vans are superior to trucks for working in nearly every way. More storeage space for tools and materials. Room to build custom shelving/storage. Everything stays dry in the back of a van. Larger vans can even fit a workbench. Vans are more fuel effecient, which should be a no brainer from a business perspective.

    The major downside to most vans is if you need to transport more than 2 workers per van.

      Van configurations can accommodate 4+ people, just like trucks, if you need it. Maybe not in the smaller vans as easily, if you have a lot of equipment, but the larger vans (Transit, ProMaster, etc.) can fit plenty. Heck, people convert them to live out of as campers. They just don’t feed the same masculinity crisis that trucks do.
