Having moved server racks, copiers and other equipment from site to site, I am thankful for my (light) truck. Cargo vans are more popular in IT since they protect from rain and sun but a flatbed is certainly better than trying to put heavy, sharp-cornered things on fabric or leather in the back of a passenger car nearly the same size as my (light) pickup.
I mean, it was parked in a driveway and looked pretty shiny, so I’d assume it’s the boss’s company car. I do get that even IT people need to move non-digital stuff sometimes, but I’ve only ever seen them do it in vans around here. But who knows.

I moved servers, racks, printers, etc between sites in the back of my Fiat 500. With the back seats down it’s just like a little delivery van.
