There are some scenarios where pickup trucks make perfect sense, and I've even seen family pickup trucks being utilized by construction workers. It's another question that today's construction workers are quite often the rich douches, the lack of front view due to the front hood of the car, or that we already have an issue of people "needing" a work car for a laptop bag.

I see a lot of construction companies sport like one raptor or other silly ass pick-up truck. But not for the workers, they use buses, obviously. The raptor is always clean and. Is just for the boss to cruise around and he can still claim he needs it to get to construction sites.
