a couple of things they did with this van was put a nice arm rest in the middle which can act as a cooler or file holder and the gas cap is set farther back next to the rear wheel fender keeping it out of the way inside the cargo area.

What makes it worthless when compared to a GM or Ford van?

Far be it for me to speak for Senor Chef, BUT I believe what he is saying is it's a half ton at most and not suited for Expediting.

If it were at least 4 feet longer, it would be much better.

The short load floor makes it less then desireable even when compared to the extended for and Gm's,,,now compare it to the sprinter....

Yes it will work for expediting as I pointed out in saying it "is almost" worthless...now to buy one new with its limitation even when considering that you can buy a used ford or chevy would be kinda silly in my opinion, and then again add a used spinter to the equation...

The short load floor is a killer....
