A Ford conversion van really is the best road trip ride. My entire childhood was road trips in a modestly-blinged out van.

I'm sure conversions are great otherwise but I just can't do the American Fullsize Van Seating Position for more than about half an hour. Even before I messed my back up it was uncomfortable, now it's near torture. Especially the GM ones, since the doghouse is so much wider. Such is the cost of being able to get at those rear spark plugs I suppose.

I thought about conversion van or even a Winnebago but had to go with the Road master wagon. The AI version would have whatever LS* would fit.

I had to switch to a Toyota because my wife is super uncool though. Stupid cost of divorce and child support.
