I laugh every time I hear that Chrysler "pioneered the mini-van" or "invented the cab-forward concept". How much earlier could the "mini-van" have been pioneered than the micro-buses back in the 50's, or cab-forward, you want cab-forward? drive a VW Vanagon or one of it's predecessors! You can't get much more cab-forward! I also like, to someone else's credit, the analysis of the word "Caravan", car - a - van. Just thoughts. Karl |
