Hi Rob,

My Dad has been using a 1980 Vanagon as a work truck for about two
years now. He does general "handy-man" stuff... Fences, painting,
custom cabinetry, minor plumbing and electrical, etc. The vanagon has
the rear windows frosted and has racked the back with shelves for his
tools and materials, and ladders on the roof.

It's cold in the winter, but it has never failed to get him to a
customer site when he needs it.

Darn surprising they didn't make a panel Vanagon.

Happy trails,
