Tow capability isn’t the problem so much as the $70k+ price tag and the fact that many don’t even tow more than what a sedan can handle just fine. My dad’s STi tows the trailer just fine, ya know? The OG VW Beetle had a camper attachment specifically designed for it. And none of that even points out that vans are better work vehicles than trucks in basically every way including the fact that full-size vans are actually built on truck frames and can also tow just fine.

I see a LOT of trucks in Ontario and Quebec and when I see a real 8ft bed it’s rare enough to note. Pretty much all of them are 6ft, my friend’s dad who runs a lumber mill said the GM dealership practically told him to keep dreaming when he asked for a cheap replacement for his old S10(i.e. he asked for cloth seats and an 8ft bed; ya know, a work vehicle). Hell, when I do see a full bed it’s probably on a Toyota.
