Dillman & Upton Building Supplies. Truck #01 As if another is rolling around somewhere. Intended for 1 man deliveries, obviously. Try to find an ordinary [2 door] full size pickup these days. If you want to chauffeur people around, get a car.
Cool as can be, I've never seen one. Design not earth-shattering but still; but no wasted space, even curb side bin with doors.

Very compactly utilitarian indeed but you can't bring the shop gofer along on a delivery to help you unload.

Oh the shop gofer is there alright.
The instant he's out from behind the wheel.

There's a joke about 'board' and 'bored' in there somewhere; too tired for finding, creating, or plagiarizing one.
