My girlfriend (or whatever she is) has a full size van, now it's a older one 1985 I think, but I don't like the way you have to be a contortionists (sp) to get in and out of the thing. I really don't feel all that safe with nothing in front of me. (no hood, engine, etc.) Do the newer vans have any safety equipment? In the old days they had very few.
If you've seen the newer vans, you'll see that the engine is pushed out to the front significantly (mostly for crash protection). The doghouse inside the van is much smaller and ingress/egress is significantly better than older body styles.
