The [[Vapid]] '''Minivan''' is a four-door minivan found exclusively in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] resembling a fourth generation (2001-2007) [[wikipedia:Dodge Grand Caravan|Dodge Caravan]].  There are 2 different types of Minivans roaming the streets of GTA:IV.  There is the standard model that can be seen with or without a roof spoiler (though both flavors feature a Minivan Sport badge on the rear liftgate), and the Minivan [[Cabby]] which serves taxi duty and also has its own "Minivan Cabby" liftgate badge. However the Cabby version is manufactured by Shyster, Then most likely being based on the Chrysler Voyager. However, since Vapid is the games rendition of Ford Motor Company, the Minivan may be meant to resemble a 2nd generation Ford Windstar or a 1st generation Ford Freestar. Ironically, it's name is not called the [[Blista]] because it has been replaced by the new minivan (not called the Blista).

However, since Vapid is the games rendition of Ford Motor Company, the Minivan may have meant to resemble a 2nd generation Ford Windstar or a 1st generation Ford Freestar, but R* forgot to change it. Ironically, it's name is not called the [[Blista]] because it has been replaced by the new minivan (not called the Blista). It is not known why R* decided to call the Minivan just the Minivan, as other cars in the game (and real world too) have distinctive names.


The fact that the Minivan is badged as both a Vapid and a Shyster (when as a taxi) may be reflecting the fact that the Dodge Caravan is sold as a Chrysler Town and Country and a Plymouth Grand Voyager. This may suggest that there might be partnerships between car manufacturers in the GTA world, or a larger mother company like [[wikipedia:General Motors|General Motors]] may exist, who produce the same vehicles under different names.
