  • When I had my roof replaced last year the shingles were delivered by a large flat bed semi with a conveyor belt to get the shingles on the roof. The guys doing the work showed up the next day in small cars. I doubt may people are rolling up to replace a roof with a truck bed full of shingles and carrying them up a ladder.

    Large trucks do have uses in a few very limited places but the vast majority in the US are not needed. Looking at self reported usage of truck owners most would be better served with a smaller more economical car and renting a truck as needed. Even people hauling regularly would probably benefit having a kei truck.

    The argument against mixed use is often that they don’t want to be forced to live in a mixed use area, but the same people are fine with forcing everyone to live how they want. Most likely they only want single family homes because they have never experienced good mixed use and can’t imagine how great it is.
