MAN just might produce that truck. They are known for not following the norm.
If there was some compromise in the taper ov the van that was made up for with a tail extension, the load volume would only be minamally impacted.
Perhaps a lift gate type roof to have a full height loading opening ? Sort of like those "Aztec" SUVs have ?
The rest of the truch is close enough to their current models to only require new fiberglass not a full retool.
