My 85gl has hauled tons of household stuff and just things with no prob, plus its covered
my last move the people i lived with were shocked! you fit all that in that van, they have no
idea what ive done with this. * also even tried to get me to use their Ford pickup to use, but
that puppy sucks fuel. no thanks :)

I hope someone local takes this van, sounds like a good daily.
