So like custom conversion vans in the 70s and 80s?

Honestly, those conditions sound like pretty much exactly what I'd expect working oil in Alberta, and given the cost to make that horrific of a modification, it wouldn't suprise me if it was something used for work.

It also would not suprise me if it was some jerk with more money than sense, esspecially as this wouldn't necessarily conflate with the first.

Please.

I'm from Alberta. This is just big dick energy.

Besides, there are 4x4 crew vans with lift kits that the oil sands mines use to address the issues you're talking about. Those are most certainly cheaper than this monstrosity, and if it was a work thing he'd have to have company decals on it.

This is totally a male enhancement device due to the lift and frame length. It's weak in the frame and real regular off-road use will crack it.

It's a fucking joke just like the joke that drives it. "Look at me! I'm such a tough manly manchild. My beard is huge and I listen to country music even though I've never owned a cow and live in the suburbs."

Real working 4x4/dually trucks tend to be factory height (little higher than factory rear wheel) as you don't want to lift heavy shit higher than you have to. They're also beat to hell because they do real work.

Comments like this are so ridiculous. Do you really think nothing ever gets build in Europe because people use vans and buses instead of emotional support vehicles? Canada is just another country, not fucking Mars

You seriously going to tell me this thing was "purpose-built" for anything more than luxury for the occupants? There are vastly more efficient ways to accomplish anything this thing can do, the only difference is that there's a tiny bit less legroom. Literally every single one of those things can be accomplished with a modified/lifted van and maybe a trailer.

okay hold on, do other countries not have buses that aren't operated as public transport? do hockey teams in canada take a whole fleet of cars to matches or do they just fly for half an hour?

here in sweden at least it's completely standard to just buy or rent a bus when you have like 8+ people who need to go somewhere.
