That may be another one.  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.
