What is best alternative to a van?

I am a kitchen and bathroom fitter and I am fed up with vans, what's the best car to use?

Probably a commercial SUV, like the Toyota Land Cruiser, Land Rover Defender or Dacia Duster. These have two or three passenger seats in the front and a large, flat load space in the rear.
