They used to make windex with vinegar in it - maybe you could use a vinegar solution.... but I wouldn't keep it under the rear seat, might wrench your back just getting it out.

Or if a self serve car wash is around, you could just spray the entire van down with spot-free rinse.... That works for me.

Then too, if you'll know you'll be in a dusty area, like the oceanside or offroad, you could always cover the front windsheild with saran wrap in multiple layers and then just peel off one layer at a time.
