Here's some other stuff you can't do in a mini-van that you can do in an EV MV:

Turn your MV into a "sky-box". YEp, with this "cold" weather we've been having here in the NE, its been hell watching my son's high school baseball team. Solution? Park the van near the diamond....pop the table, have a sandwich...coffee, etc!

Quick bike transporter when the kids call and they're 20 miles from home and too tired (lazy) to ride the rest of the way. Solution. Fold up the jump seats load the bikes in....use the seat belt from the passenger side jump seat and wrap it around the frames, and anchor it in the clasp on the driver's side jump seat.

Be a Thorn in the Side to "air-cooled purists" who say the EV is not a REAL VW Van. I know these little discussions have honed my debating skills!! 8)

One word - CURTAINS!!!! Put up the snap-on curtains, and then you, as our friend from Arthur-Andersen has observed, you can crank up the Dead, roll up a couple of joints, and have a little Victoria's Secret fashion show (nudge..nudge...wink..wink..) 8)
