Is your area "the entire rest of the world outside the United States"?

Pickups are absolutely a regional affectation. I kinda want one, but I do not need one.

No I'm in the southeast US. I see tons of trucks here too but for certain jobs vans still dominate.

They absolutely are for consumers but not so much in business. Vans are superior for most trade jobs within the US and pretty big sellers. Yes there are some gaps like if you in parts of Alaska or other very rural parts of America but largely trade jobs are spending all of their time on pavement.
