Anybody who takes their van to a car show KNOWS THIS...VANS get the most attention and "stirs" the most imagination in the minds of the folks who "gaze" upon them....( NOT arrogant...just FACT). I LOVE going to a small corporate car show and be 1 van amoung 25-30 cars....PIECE O CAKE!.....I WILL get calls from it...ALL I have to do is show up, open the van, and THEN do what i do best ( RUN MY MOUTH about the van and what the stuff on it can DO FOR THEM or their company). My van dosen't have a high dollar paint job ( just STOCK PAINT), NO expensive wheels ( $100 "shiney" hub caps), no chop or fancy fiberglass do-dads, no big fancy engine ( ALL OF WHICH ARE GREAT THINGS)...MINES ALL STOCK...except my custom interior built to PRODUCE sales at new car dealerships and body shops and the like...Its a TOOL...It's FUN to use this tool and to learn how the tool can benifit in different situations.MY VAN to ME...is EVERYTHING a vanner could want( sleep in it , carry all my stuff i need with me, looks cool ( IS COOL..just ask me) PLUS************** Helps me to produce an INCOME , I'm always "home" with my van.................THERE I GO AGAIN...Blablabla
100 percent VANNER!
