If the old panel trucks and windowless HHRs are "vans" then a Sprinter/Ram/Freightliners and Transits are all vans too. Our favorite classic bodies won't be around forever. TIme to embrace the new. Besides, they aren't all bad.

I'm saying there needs to be a distinction between a Classic Van and a Sprinter Type Van. I get that they are Van's. I'm speaking about Campers IE: conversion vans converted to campers. I wonder how an HHR converted into a full camper would be excepted into the Class B camper ONLY outing.

Woudl they fall into the same category as Type IIs, Vanagons, Toyota vans, Subaru vans, and the rest an be imports or Eurovans? Maybe the REALLY late Dodge van class?
An HHR converted into a Clas B would be quite a tight squeeze. It would have ot be a hightop or a pop-top for sure.

I didn't think they were considered vans. What's the verdict? Just wondering...I'm not getting one.

HHRs can only enter if they are a factory panel Commercials keep referring to Pacificas as vans. I didn't think they were considered vans. What's the verdict? Just wondering...I'm not getting one. if you mean the Chrysler, then yes, it's a marketed and sold as a minivan, so it's allowed. 90 Astro - "The Grey Ghost" - Haulin Ass, Not kids.E-Z Vanners and West Vanners Council of Councils Board Member National Truck-in Board Support Team "No matter where you go, there you are."

THAT would be allowed into the NATS simply bc it was originally a factory panel, even if though has been altered/customized to the exact same as the non-panel trim version?
seems like odd logic to simply prevent a line-walking vehicle into the rally. imo
the PT i get, bc it wasn't ever available as a panel. but a vehicle offered as a factory panel.. i guess i just have a different opinion about it.
