When you see a V'gon in a parking lot, do you walk over and check it out?
First two things I look at are the tires and the odometer.  I think only
about 10% (at the outside) have correct tires on them.

Any overloaded van is tipsy, but an overloaded van with car tires?  That
could skew any accident statistics.
