I started out with a pickup (still have it, but don't use it for that) and 
stopped for each of those reasons.

That "getting stuff from the front of the bed" was something I just hated.

I've found an AWD cargo Caravan for sale.   No windows in the back.   With 
safety cage and I'd probably put in some cabinetry...   That would work 
quite well.
