      The idea is that it’s the base for things like a dump truck, a gravel hauler, small firetruck, or other large commercial vehicle.

      If anyone is driving one around as a form of transportation, they are probably avoiding therapy.

      I’ve used them for work. Some models can pull more than small tractor trailer rigs. Using them as a pickup truck is insane.

      It’s a commercial vehicle. Very few, if any, people drive them as normal commuter vehicles.

        Okay because despite being a commercial vehicle I would have believed someone telling me that it’s mostly used to commute in a residential area lol. Often people drive pickups because they feel they need a truck even tho they never use the bed

            Nooooo. They’re on the internet so they’re real.

            Serious answer here. So the black truck comes as a truck builder option. You buy the cab, engine and suspension (frame obviously too) and customize from there. The truck is designed to provide PTO and electrical interface for development. They’re a pain to work on. The one of a kind I worked on were. https://www.ford.com/commercial-trucks/f650-f750/models/f750-sd-diesel-straight-frame/

        It was a work truck from a commercial trucking company. Likely a dump truck or flatbed. Insurance will pay for the damages and the driver shit canned.

      This was work truck hauling crushed gravel. So it was basically acting like a small dump truck.
