I do wish a simple truck existed that one could buy new.
I always enjoy Mr. Money Mustache's take on trucks such as this gem:

Good practical advice in there - but one must also consider safety.. I certainly wouldn't want to be hit at over 10mph in a 1980s Toyo single-cab. Which is another thing to think about if using a mini-van as a hauler - secure your loads just in case.. There's a reason that real work vans have metal dividers.
