MODERATORS
I want to say that these trucks do have legitimate use cases, however, if you look at the available features, and compare that against the use case for a truck like these, then you'll probably be confused as to why many of the features are even available at all.
A lot of those purposes can be better served by other vehicles. Work vans provide pretty much the same cargo space except enclosed. Plus the most popular style has a giant crew cab and a tiny bed, which is the opposite of what you want unless you're towing a trailer and have a bunch of people to haul around. So unless you own a lawn care company you don't really need it.
