I agree, it sounds awesome. I am normally not a van fan, but yours is alright. I think I don't like vans, because when I worked at the university motor pool (while I was at school there) I learned to hate seing one being on the wash list. Those vans were always such a mess and you could never get them clean enough to suite the Aholes.
