Thanks to:

CarDomain members for scoring my van so high!

& for your comments:

"OK...there IS such a thing as a bad ass minivan!"

"almost didn't notice it was a van!"

"from whimped to pimped"

"from so slow to Enzo"

"from geek to chic"

"from stock to Rock"

"from haulin' kids and being dirty

to bold & red like an F430"

to the young lady at the Burger King, who said: "...like the coolest van ev-er!"

the dude at Tudor's, who said: "love it when a plan comes together." ...sure hope that was an "A-Team" reference.
