Hey all! Time to let the cat out of the bag, Tyler and I are buying the cheapest mini van we can find that will make it to VIR and back and we're going to do some stupid shit with it.
Requirements: - Less than $750
- Can be bought this week or next, driven to VIR, driven back, then thrown off a cliff or sold to someone else for more than $5
- Can fit a Moped in the back
- Relatively simple to work on (Nothing ancient, nothing like an E350) Preferably a Honda Odyssey or the like
Thanks!
Ohh the one with the liftgate is sweet. Don't even break a sweat loading the moped. Do it.

Thanks Scott, keep them coming!
Let's avoid ones with transmission issues as we're going to be doing a lot of neutral drops.

I'm completely sold on the van life. We bought a buddy of ours a 96 Dodge conversion van as a wedding present for $700. Mint and complete with mood lighting, fold down rear seat for a bed, tv, and VHS player. I drove it around RVA this past weekend for his bachelor party. There was just something about playing Mario Bros 2 on the original Nintendo in the Club Rouge parking lot drinking beer and drawn privacy shades..
He threw on a set of Falken Wildpeak A/Ts and we're gonna overland the fuck out of it.
(typical Nintendo freezing..)
Only $700 for that? Shiiiiit.
Taylor, I'd go with a RWD-based van instead of an early FWD setup given one requirement was "doesn't eat transmissions." What about an Aerostar?

Early 2000 Dodge Caravans are like cockroaches; damn near indestructible. I have seen some Caravan cabs in excess of 300k miles.

Keep 'em coming. Either not getting responses or they're in Richmond. I'm on call this weekend and I don't feel like driving 2 hours to look at a van. DC area only please.
I knew she was the one for me when we first met eyes. Her reflective saftey strips on the back glass glistened like the ocean under the full moon. Her blue dash, as deep and as colorful as the rings of Saturn. Her cloth bench seats, as lush and soft as the fields of hay that grow in the fields of my home country.
Last night, I popped the question. SHE SAID YES!

If we don't all get the exact same number of orange slices, you're not my real mom anymore.
