Definition
TRUCKVAN indicates whether any member of the household owns transport equipment, such as a truck, van, bus, or taxi. The related variable CAR may indicate ownership of a truck as well as private car ownership.
The information in TRUCKVAN is taken from the household record, linked to the record of the woman respondent. This information applies to household residents, not temporary visitors, so researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2").
