I was going to say just put a stupid-tax on them, but I guess Trump has kinda done that with the price of diesel.

And remove the tax concessions for using them as 'work' vehicles.

I'll be honest, remove it for any fucking ute that doesnt literally have a motorised compressor, pump or similar bolted to the tray.

98% of tradies can do their shit out of a van, they just want a swanky ute they can be an utter cunt on the road with. And they can go get fucked.

90% of them can do it out of a hatchback. They just need a gender affirming vehicle.
