Yes I am dumb normie. Who has set up for doing things a certain way. I have my cnc plasma tables, my 3d printers and cnc mills. They are essential to my business. I need to be able to run the cad programs, communications and links. I have spent alot of hours already establishing this, learning how to do this. I don't have time to re learn all this because I "should switch to linux" I don't have time to learn new cad programs because the ones i use aren't Linux friendly. Many of us normies just don't have that spare time to go through the process. I just need something that I know will work.

I do heavy equipment/industrial/marine maintnace and fabrication work. The ability to overhead load things into the bed. Rather than being limited to what is on a pallet with a forklift. Being able have cargo that is longer than the bed of the truck and not have to drive with cab doors open. Being able to install a 5th wheel trailer to tow more than what the standard ball hitch allows. You shure aren't going to make a tow truck out of a van. Bulk cargo? Just show up to quarry or dirt pit load a bucket full or 2 and of you go. Lots of reasons. These are just the basic examples. There's lots more. From welding rigs to just being able to put a skid of drywall in with out hassle.
