Vans are boxy road vehicles used for transporting goods or people. Because of their bulk, they are often used[1] for holding sets of equipment. A van can contain the proper tools for an entire operation, be it a mobile triage center or computer monitoring station. A van can also be used as a mobile house of sorts, using its rear load area for a bed and storage.

The Be-Muraled Van[]
Vans can be plain (used by carpenters, plumbers, and undercover agents) or straightforward (ambulances, shuttles, other public services) like other vehicles, but some folks emblazon their vans with elaborate airbrushed art--perhaps justifying levels of Appearance with other van enthusiasts.
Van Myths[]
Some vans have external locks on their rear doors. While a viral meme claimed these were for kidnapping purposes, they're actually used by blue-collar workers to prevent theft--it turns out ancient vans have terrible locks.[2]
