carrying 3 more people

As a payload.

I'm not sure if you can fill it to load capacity even with lead bricks.

Or if you want to carry people, you can use this: . For carrying not people you can remove seats. It's even roughly same size.

Oh, marshrutka

So many good memories, got replaced with better buses in my city

Bless your city. I know one city in Belgorod Oblast that still 100% microbuses.

In addition to the payload. Payload goes in the back! Fill it with stones then put five men in it to shovel the stones. You'd need two vans for the same purpose. And if it's roughly the same size, what's the problem? Vans like that can be nice too, we see lots of Ford transits here in the states for tradesmen. Similar use case to what you're describing.

But a van and a truck are used for different things. Your not going to see a van around the farm for example because it just isn't that useful for farm work. Just like your not going to see a truck out delivering packages because it just isn't the useful for that use case. Many of these vehicles have the exact same frame and engion just with a different body on top for whatever best fits the use case.

This community exists as a sister community/copycat community to the r/fuckcars subreddit.

This community exists for the following reasons:

You can find the Matrix chat room for this community here.

Rules

  1. Be nice to each other. Being aggressive or inflammatory towards other users will get you banned. Name calling or obvious trolling falls under that. Hate cars, hate the system, but not people. While some drivers definitely deserve some hate, most of them didn't choose car-centric life out of free will.

  2. No bigotry or hate. Racism, transphobia, misogyny, ableism, homophobia, chauvinism, fat-shaming, body-shaming, stigmatization of people experiencing homeless or substance users, etc. are not tolerated. Don't use slurs. You can laugh at someone's fragile masculinity without associating it with their body. The correlation between car-culture and body weight is not an excuse for fat-shaming.

  3. Stay on-topic. Submissions should be on-topic to the externalities of car culture in urban development and communities globally. Posting about alternatives to cars and car culture is fine. Don't post literal car fucking.

  4. No traffic violence. Do not post depictions of traffic violence. NSFW or NSFL posts are not allowed. Gawking at crashes is not allowed. Be respectful to people who are a victim of traffic violence or otherwise traumatized by it. News articles about crashes and statistics about traffic violence are allowed. Glorifying traffic violence will get you banned.

  5. No reposts. Before sharing, check if your post isn't a repost. Reposts that add something new are fine. Reposts that are sharing content from somewhere else are fine too.

  6. No misinformation. Masks and vaccines save lives during a pandemic, climate change is real and anthropogenic - and denial of these and other established facts will get you banned. False or highly speculative titles will get your post deleted.

  7. No harassment. Posts that (may) cause harassment, dogpiling or brigading, intentionally or not, will be removed. Please do not post screenshots containing uncensored usernames. Actual harassment, dogpiling or brigading is a bannable offence.

Please report posts and comments that violate our rules.
