garage had to be modified!!!...van was such a good find with lift that we didn't even think about it....garage door boys came in...slid tracks and unit back to back of garage and maximized hieght...we still had to cut a piece of metal of off building to get it to go! :)

it is in a garage at vac store. shared garage of vac inventory..small heated room...the garage is not heated/insulated well...if its 20 or 30 below we run the zone heater out there...otherwise everything stays fine...ha did scrape the top on a custys tree..."what the hell am i running over?" haha forward and back twice while getting out to see what i was hitting....then realized it was scraping on the top..:)


thanks for all comments...

I showed it to my wife and she liked everything except the guy on the side and back. If her picky self is happy with it, then it should be Ok with your customers.

why would you trade a limo (extended) van for a shorty van?? I think I would rather run the old van. yeah the graphics on both vans do look pretty broke dick.

No offense, but I think the caricature is horrible.
Some nice rims, and the van would be catchy, but that caricature's gotta go.
Van graphics should all have the same "theme". It totally clashes with the rest of the graphics, not to mention it looks amateurish.
I also think more people would be too busy joking about how goofy it looks, than will be focusing on your business name or phone number.
I myself keep getting transfixed on those big full lips. :oops: The last time I saw a nice pair of lips like that was on George V's new cow.


"Creepy dude in a van" associations are not good for business..............Is it supposed to be you?
Can we have an actual picture for comparison?

Its better than not having a lettered van.

Bottomline is.. some will like it and others wont. Many wont even care.

Good job on the new van and lettering.

i'm sayin' that an UNLETTERED VAN will get more jobs than that one!

OR their eyesight is worse than their taste!

I personally wouldnt do the lettering like that, but its already on there so all we can do is wish him well. In fact, you can put a loud speaker on there and sell ice cream out the side in between jobs... you can sell some fast thawing ice cream with your business card attached to it.
