I'd rip the interior out, dash and all, tear all the upholstery wide open, probably cut open the rocker panels and any other sealed compartments. Check the engine sump, inside the valve covers and engine tin. Don't forget the tires and battery! Gather up anything that even looks like drugs, then mail it to yourself in Tacoma, but get someone else to address the package so it won't be in your handwriting. When you get there pretend the package couldn't be for you, offer to return it to the postoffice immediately. Drive into the countryside, you got lost right, fake an accident, and claim that every thing in the van was flung out the windows. Don't forget to break all of them as part of the 'accident' Bury the package near the roadside, and when things have cooled of a bit, 3-5 years, go back, ingest everything you put in the package and ask yourself, why!
