That bicycle with its front wheel with that gear, it looks so menacing and dangerous. I'd hate to see all the plant materials it chews and sticks to it when riding narrow tracks. Obviously I wont mention the other hazards.
Speaking of hazards.
I was looking at IIHS crash safety, most minivans are rated as poor for frontal crash, offset crash, and side crash.
Even the 2014 T&C minivan is rated poor.

The only minivans that were good were the usual suspects, newer Toyota and Honda minivans with newer federal crash safety standards crumple zones 2010+. As seen in the same linked video above.
I'd sure hate to see the crash for snub nose older vans from the 70's, but then theres the tad larger then snub nose vans from the 80's, which some in 2000/10/20's were the same way like the work vans but more engineering in crumple zones but still not worth the risk. If anything go for a truck van with a 5' hood in front of you and at least from mid 00's. Then your talking more money for fuel, larger vehicle.
See what I am talking about.
Snub nose van
A tad larger then snub nose van
Newer work type van and rv's come in this flavor of snub nose, with better engineered crumple zones.
Old trucks dont have good crash accident stats, but find the same thing, cube, rv style BUILT-IN rear on a 2000+ truck
The worst of the worst, flat nose van, flat nose anything is real bad.
VW flat nosed
Old North America Cab Over
New European Cab Over
Chassis truck, with built in rear.
As suppose to slide on camper
I kinda of dig the Australia built in rears.

I used to want the full size van with built in rear. Camper van wide body, so built in rear with an extra foot sticking out both sides, but you can get that in raised roof, which is what I'd go for.
Wide body with raised roof.
As apposed to a normal rv, motorhome style.
Final decision would be something like this. 2010 or newer Truck, crew cab, 4x4, built in rear but I'd switch it up a bit and have the top bit that goes over the cab of the truck, have that a flip up so when your driving around its not as restrictive. Can still go through drive thru's. That adds about an inch rather then 2'. If I wanted a 2 person roamer/offroader, then obviously the australia truck with built in camper.
