haha, that reminds me of one of my buddies, went to another state for like 4-5 months for a contracted short term job, he got a minivan that he could fit his sport bike in the back!! the entertaining thing was he had the cash to buy a new diesel if he wanted to!

I rented a minivan the last time i was home in january, it was a Kia, let me tell you......that thing was fast and handled better than most sports cars ive drove, i could take on ramps at 65-70 and it wouldnt bobble a bit, and it had a manumatic tranny so you could launch hard in 1st and powershift it at wide open throttle into 2nd then 3rd, barked the tires on both upshifts.......i had a dodge intrepid i had rented for a few days before the van and i hated that thing, it wouldnt handle worth a crap and died 3 or 4 times......
