    Anyone drive a pickup rather than a van?

    As the title, I'm thinking about changing from a Vivaro to a pickup. It wouldn't have as much carrying capacity, but that would just make me more disciplined about what ai carry. Sooo, has anyone made a similar change and if so with what result - happy, big mistake, or.....???

    We're getting some van stickers made. What would you want on them? I'm thinking for the trusted advisors having some sort of wording denoting that they're a trusted advisor would be cool. A nice plug for them. Then some standard ones perhaps saying 'I'm a member of ElectriciansForums.co.uk'...

    Lock your vans

    Just made the mistake of leaving my van unlocked for 10mins on a quiet cul-de-sac. Some scumbags managed to pinch my 18v Bosch grinder. Very lucky that it wasn't something more expensive like my fluke mft but just reinforces the fact that you can't be too careful

    Van Security Thread

    After seeing this on the plumbing forum I thought it's wise for us to share van security tips, and van models to avoid (this is Mk7 Transit - has no top runner on the door which apparently allows you to stand on the door and simply bend it in a few seconds). Alarms, dead locks, chains on the...
