The van stays. Shopped a long time for the right one. The top alone is over $3k.

I'm willing to extend the back a couple feet or so with a tail but do not want to lengthen the front. The rear overhang is already a hassle so a bigger hassle there is small potatoes but the front snubness is a saving grace daily and to compromise that would make parking at work and school major issues.

A bigger front air dam, skirts from front tire to back tire with spats on both ends, rear skirts from rear tires to rear bumper, a kamback, and a belly pan are the plans. Gonna finish this grill block project and have the AC tuned up then start working/spending money on the motorcycles. Best way to save fuel is to ride the bikes but having a dry rig with AC will be a blessing this summer.
