Not much difference between a Weekender and a Multivan.
           Weekender has brown interior and a fixed jump seat as well as
the front of the rear seat/bed had a wooden front.
           Multivan has a styled plastic front as well as 2 removable jump
seats.
            I see ads for vans with Weekender interiors which are really
just Carat interiors. A true Weekender/Multivan has a pop top and rear
cabinet.
            Biggest difference about a Weekender/Multivan is the rear seat
is like a camper seat that does not depend on the body to lock closed.
They also have different styled plastic panels from a Carat, as the Carat
rear relies on bear claw latches and posts to lock it open.
               The term “Zbed” is widely misused  to describe a folding
seat. A true Z bed was a conversion from a non movable seat to a bed.
