THIS IS SO FAKE, WHY LIE ABOUT TRUCKS ARENT THEY BIG ENOUGH AS IT IS?

I don't think it's fake, just look at the last door; it's the dry/dirty spot below the handle is a different shape which tells me it isn't just a copy/paste of another one. The center door window is also narrower than the others, to accommodate the additional pillar that would be needed for the structure.

Plus it (probably) wouldn't be centered in 4 parking spaces if it wasn't that long. Normal length trucks take up 2 spaces at most, if the driver is an asshole. It's very possible, if expensive, to modify a truck like that. You've seen a limo right? Same concept.

My guess is this is for the oil fields in some way since you could get a crew into one vehicle.

Never the less the fact that they choose a pickup truck when they could have had a really sweet off road van is depressing. You can't account for taste I guess.
