I hope things improve, I’ve seen a lot of positive noises from the US so hopefully there’s a movement building!

The trades vehicles point is interesting, it seems like in the US they all use heavy trucks, whereas in Europe the norm is vans like Ford transit.

Oh yeah, I can understand some trades require heavy duty lifting over rough terrain, but every yahoo with some extra bucks seems to think it is a mark of status to get themselves a fancy rig that guzzles the gas. I drive a 2003 Honda Element that meets all my needs, least I can do to keep it real.
