    I'm seeing a lot of your other rides on Instagram. The cool thing about lifted van drivers is we may be into different types of performance cars. I seen one of you with a Gallardo another with a 1960s Mini Cooper , one of you has a WRX that you don't ever drive like how I don't drive my Z06 and some of you use to be into straight up rock crawlers. As diverse as the "Other" rides are we all roll in similar Lifted vans!

      @@BlackMambaMMA Skip to :53 I show a lifted Minivan. Lifted minivan over SUV! Mini Vans aren't as big but they have the same interior space as a Ford Excursion. and a Excursion has 0 chance hitting 25 MPG unless you get the diesel and those go for crazy money now. If I didn't have the want for a lifted full size van I would be rolling in a lifted mini van. Still going to get one as a summer camping rig when my channel hits 20K subscribers. Keep me updated one what you do man. I hope you join the Sports car with a van crew !

      You young guys have it figured out! Lifted vans are way better then performance/sports cars! I'll recover from having no job soon. I think us local guys should check out Procter Road in Jamul the most haunted Freeway. It looks scenic out there too and it's a cool story.

    It had been like 5 years since I brought my mini anywhere. I also have a 91 Mercedes SL500 with 70k miles I never use and like 3 motorcycles I rarely ride because, well, I sell motorcycles. lol. But, I drive the van everyday.

      I been wanting to do a video about this and seeing my friend just get a Gallardo then seeing your Mini out of nowhere I was like ok let me take my Z06 wash it and take it around the block at least. Whens the last time you drove the Mercedes around the block? Z06 is now washed up and now going away for another month lol. Can't wait to see your van lifted even higher. You will like it even more then you do now.

      You 2 are actually the first 2 people I noticed last year when I said damn those are some nice rides they have! Then I started making van friends on Instagram and started seeing their rides and had to make this topic. The funny this is a bunch of us are in our 40s and we have these cars we dont drive but refuse to sell. A friend of mine said he has a WRX he never drives but refuses to sell I said dude are you 40? He said 39........

      Nice! Lifted Van guys have some sweet rides! I'm noticing it's motorcycles, sports/performance cars or some cool 4x4. You have a legendary status 4x4! I have another friend who use to be into straight up Rock Crawlers but now he's just wanting to lift his van. I never had intention to make my van a hardcore off roading rig. The intention has always been get to a cool spot with the Tracker and off road with the Tracker. Another topic is what are Lifted Van guys daily driver

    I so would love to find a 4x4 van that is decent. Thinking about getting rid of my C8 to build some overlanding vehicle just because I am more in the mountains, camping etc than at any track or actually driving my vette.

      @@JohnDrivesAnything my camping rig or which it has turned into is a diesel TDI ALH 5sp Jetta wagon on bags (to raise when needed and level out if sleeping inside) I have 7.5kw battery, 3k inverter, 200w solar, 6.5x8 awning side or rear mountable and a iceco vl60 dual zone fridge. It gets me by I can really load it up but has mostly been my add station for ultra running. It's seems sooo small now that the last 3 years I've been renting vans etc out in Colorado for my trips. Need a more capable vehicle than these type of newer vans, more like what you have. Soo sweet.

      @@TimShelnut If you don't do too much snow camping have you considered doing a 2wd Lifted Van Build? C8 Is such a sweet car. 2wd Lifted Builds are a good chunk of money cheaper then the 4x4 vans. A lot of lifted 2wd Vans pop up for sale for really cheap. A lot of my buddies on youtube and Instagram are rolling in 2wd Lifted van builds and still held onto their performance cars. Most of us are rolling for under $20,000. Most of us start off on $10K vans with low 100K miles and mod from there.

      Z06 variation was sold in 1963. It was reintroduced in 2001 in the 5th Generation Corvette. This is a 2003. The Z06 variation is designed for the track with more horsepower. You can only get them in manual in the 5th and 6th Generation.
