Scott you are on a roll. Our GMC still flies under most peoples radar so we don't get many comments one way or the other. Once or twice we've had old vanners spot it and say hello and talk a spell. Most people just see a white van. The most comments are from large motorhome owners we park alongside of when we stop at campgrounds over night. They wanna look it over and then they almost always talk about freedom....... | | | Re: The first thing people say when they see your van is......... | Joined: Dec 2000 Posts: 4,043 pooh-bah | pooh-bah Joined: Dec 2000 Posts: 4,043 | Got a few 'free candy' comments about the 83 G10 when I first brought it home. After adding the Cragars, it's been nothing but thumbs up, amazing how a set of wheels will change the look! When I bought it: Now:

The plain Jane Ford conversion van has gotten a few "man you could live in that thing"
My black Dodge has gotten a few "Scooby Doo" comments. Why I have no clue since it doesn't even have a hint of the mystery machine. I do get a whole lot of " Hey its the A team"

Every time they load the bags into the Big Chevy they say, "Wow, there's a lot of room in here."
In the little Dodge? Not sure why, but at stop signs, Little Old Ladies for some strange reason, just will not pull out and cross my path. Ever.
The last time it happened there was a Cop there, and he just laughed. Not sure why...
