Hi,i suppose it depends more on the work you generally do.
Yep,they look good,and are ideal for daily load/unload of larger equipment,which can bare the weather.
Any amount of valuable/delicate gear,will have to go on seats or floor. If you have a load lid,or pick-up body,or similar,it's reaching in or shuffling on yer knees,like a 1700's cornish miner...
Any ladders,or longer gear,needs a dedicated rack system,or angled over the cab/crew-cab,like a Taliban mobile rocket launcher...
It will generally be heavier on fuel,tyres,and other items,if 4x4,etc.
All me tradee pals,who swapped their vans,for pick-ups,swapped back to a van,even if they kept the pick-up,and all of them,complain of friends/relatives/neighbours,asking them to move every fridge,chair and pile of rubbish.....usually at a weekend.
......but they look mighty fine,parked with the steering on full lock,next to the butty van
