Minivan: Difference between revisions

The Minivan resembles a fourth generation (2001–2007) [[wikipedia: Dodge Caravan|Dodge Caravan]] or (2001–2003) [[wikipedia: Chrysler Voyager|Chrysler Voyager]]. The taillights resemble those found on the [[wp:Ford Ranger (North America)#1998.E2.80.93present|2001–2005 North American Ford Ranger]]. The van may come with a roof-mounted luggage rack or a rear spoiler. Unlike other cars (like the [[Vincent]] and its spoiler variant), the badging does not change with its accessories, and it always bears a "Minivan Sport" badge. Unlike its real-life counterpart, the Minivan does not have rear sliding doors; instead, it has swinging rear doors, which are common on minivans sold in Europe and Japan.

The Minivan is badged as both a [[Vapid]] vehicle and, in the case of the [[Cabby]] taxicab, a [[Schyster]], which may be an allusion to the Dodge Caravan being sold under different names (Chrysler Town and Country and Plymouth Grand Voyager). it may also suggest a partnership between Vapid and Schyster, or it may suggest a larger mother company like [[wikipedia:General Motors|General Motors]] which produces the same vehicles under different brands. Alternatively, the Cabby's "Limited Vapid Design" badging suggests that the Cabby could be manufactured under license by Schyster, or could be a [[wp:badge engineering|rebadge]] of the Vapid Minivan.
