    to me it would depend on what your scrap focus is. if you plan on doing mostly scrap metal (steel, ali, copper, appliances etc.. ) I'd go with a truck )with at least a 6' bed, preferably 8'. or a cargo van if you can acquire a trailer at least the size of a truck bed. If you are going to do anything that you may want to resell (eWaste) that you want to keep completely dry, a van is the way to go, or if you stick with a truck, you need a cap or cover, and then you're back to needing/wanting that trailer for everything else anyway. just my take on it.
