A brief animated history of the van, it's worth a look, and gave me a chuckle. Thank you Mr. Daimler, and Mr. Benz!
The van's been America's boxy hero for generations. Building cities, hauling stuff to and fro, and even helping us relax after a hard day of doing those other two things. But, as you can see from this amazing animated history of the van created by Cub Studio and Pluto, if it weren't for two competitive Germans and a lot of beer, the van wouldn't even exist.
