It is actually RV's van, hence the Florida plates on it. Flat black and Line-X'ed or Rhino lined ten ways of Sunday, nice ride tho. Nick's dad, T-Wey is no slouch dialing them in, his old van was legit.

I will keep my 37-foot toyhauler rv. It sleeps five and has a fridge, generator, hot water and a toilet.
It gets 8mpg on regular gas.

My car used to get like 65mpg, then I went to a van that did about 45-50mpg and now I'm running a pickup that does 35mpg. How the hell can you cope with 8mpg?! I'd be crying every time I drove the damn thing!!

2007 Ford E-250 with one bike and tool box with gear gets about 12 MPG. Pretty shitty.

my s-10 gets 23mpg hauling a bike. I prefer to sleep in a tent on the ground....but a moto van would be cool to have if it was all set up like the diagram above.

What kind of Van does 45mpg? My wife's Odyssey only does about 28mpg I think, (but it has a 248hp V6)

I've got an older GMC Savanah 1500 that has gotten as good as 24 MPG, but it's usually 18-22.
