One’s I’ve run across being out and about. Not all from my locale. See some while I’m traveling. My daughter calls them
“Murder Vans” 😃
Finally got enough to start a thread. I take pics of anything as such.

Does Varmitguy's Ford LTD stationwagon count?

#1 and #2 questionable as to their utility for, as your daughter puts it, a murder van. Too much crap in the back to get business done.

The rest would be serviceable.

Especially Kalispell van!

I watch a lot of the ID channel "dead people programs" (as my wife calls them).

Another season or two and I'm thinking I'm going to open a Detective Agency. Catch them bad folks afore the coppers do, cash in on the ree wards..

my parents bought a customized econoline in the 80's when they retired. it was a decked out shaggin' wagon. they drove that thing all over the US. by the time they passed away and we were selling it, it was prime creeper van material. don't see many of those on the roads up here anymore. they rotted to nothing.

I saw an old Ford like that one for sale here a few months ago.
It was the 4-wheel drive version with the 460 Engine.

I was thinking “Mobile Deer Blind”. 🤠

Have you ever heard anyone say "If this Tacoma with an overland tent set up is a rockin', don't come a knockin'"?

Of course not.
