Another day, another round of vindictive and regressive policy from this government.

registrations going up
fuel tax going up
public and active transport slashed by $1bn
15 new, uncosted roads announced

Remember when these guys campaigned on the cost of living?

Because Joe from Joe's plumbing is going to empty the van of all his tools, supplies and parts in order to take it hunting each weekend.

Work vehicles are exactly that.

I know people who do exactly that, smart-ass. Besides, you typically have enough room in a work vehicle to fit weekend gear in without emptying it out.
