It barely fits in the bloody car park. So bad for pedestrians and the environment.

    These are showing up all over the place in The Netherlands, a country that is not built to accommodate these Emotional Support Trucks. Most are bought by business owners who would be served far better by vans. Even a small van has more usable cargo space than these behemoths, and will actually fit in parking spaces, but for some stupid reason these can be had for cheap by companies because of tax rules (that’s what 20 years of right-wing government does for you). It really is beyond infuriating.

      Those same tax rules are why they’re proliferating here too. Since they can count as “work vehicles”, they’re not subject to our Luxury Car Tax.
