Photo removed

I removed a photo from this article as it was not "a truck with a cube-shaped cargo area" as per the article's definition. Instead, it shows a Luton body. Maybe this is just a difference in UK/US terminology(?) but something needs to be clarified so that the photo is consistent with the definition.--Shantavira|feed me 12:55, 12 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Box van definition in British English

This isn't s British term? I am American and have never heard of the term 'box truck' in my life.'Step van' is the common usage. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:CF99:2080:E405:E7D4:892:DF7A (talk) 21:48, 15 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]


I am the author of the above, and stand corrected. I just saw the term used in the Tampa newspaper. Maybe it is a more recent usgae, to me.
