Even then, I'm not sure they're that common. Most contractors/plumbers/movers/etc will have a Transit or something similar. There are a few, farms sometimes have them, but I would find it strange to see one parked outside someones house.

> In urban areas, yes. In rural areas- in Greece they're like a stereotype, farmers with pickup trucks. I know at least one person who has a pimped-up one with rollbars (bullbars?) and big lights and so on.

Not to mention the farmers who buy these sorts of vehicles in Europe tend to value durability, reliability and ease of maintenance. From what I can tell, they all drive around in old Hiluxes.

Having been stung by John Deere already, farmers aren't going to fall over themselves to buy something that they don't own, can't fix themselves and will likely be in the dealer for months if it breaks.

This is a luxury status symbol.
