Microvans: Badass, or just bad?

[Dakotademon7]

There aren't many things in the world I would hate more than owning a dodge caravan. Give me a strange Japanese mini van any day of the week.

I have to agree with this .

You could put one of those big fake nut sacks on it if it would make you feel better Sleeve…

Just imagine how big they would look.

Now that's funny.

So, for real, would any one want to go in on a container of these? It could be as little as $1500 per person/truck/van. I want one of the vans to use for commuting to work/taking kids to school/modifying the shit out of.

When i was 15 i used to ride my bike up to the local goodyear store and check out the 1970 subaru van for sale in the parking lot. I wanted it sooo bad. Looked like this : (sorry about pic size)






Horizontally opposed 2 cylinder, 2 stroke.

^ that with flares, wide tires and a porsche engine would be silly

Yes !

There is a single cab/pickup version as well. It's basically a micro VW microbus.

You would put your kids in that thing and drive it on the road??

3cyl that gets 50mpg, will it even get out of its own way, when in 4x4 whats the top speed 32ish mph????

its cool if thats what your in to, and find others to go in on the deal with ya. Go for it, just I would want something a bit bigger is all... that and vans are just not my cup of tea in the least...

I get the feeling that they *are* really slow. But imagine how cool a fast one would be. I think we'll get the picture here in the US and get them sooner or later anyway.

Im glad I clicked on this.

[gtdragon980]

They don't look very safe, but I would totally rock one!

[rcsoundn1]

Love these, and they are all over foreign countries. I would daily one in a minute.

I can't seem to find many (if any) lowered "deck vans". No shortage of the Jacked up ones though.

[Ether-D]

There's one. I think I'd want meaty tires though.

I'm sorry, I can't stop.
