The first landscaper I worked for also had a flower shop, and the delivery van was a
Dodge slant 6 Auto, the short van.... Around '80.... Had square headlights Stacked...
I think.... It 33 gal. tank. It was the best handling van I ever drove.
With the flowers, it was pretty much empty as far as weight goes, it did just under
17mpg doing deliveries, I though that was pretty dam good seeing as we got it
with over 300K on it. It did have to drink about 1 qt. with each fill up.
Died when I stopped driving it and they chose not to check the oil each day like I
did..... All windows, great visibility, GREAT turning circle, always started, ran great
for all those miles, And the power steering was the best !
Great van !............... Almost like a Honda.......
