Werd, I used to be in a traveling band from the DC area that was on Caroline records so I know all about traveling in a van. Why do you want a conversion van? 3 half stacks and a drum kit take up a lot of room. You could take out the rear bench, build the typical bed loft and store all the equipment under that and one guy has to ride the trip on the loft. Or you could go to smaller amps (what am I thinking!) I traded my half stack boogie in for a 1980 Mark IIB and never looked back. It is probably just as heavy, but easier to deal with. Besides, only one speaker usually gets miked and everything is going through the PA if you want any kind of decent sound. We went with a passenger van and did the loft thing, only 4 of us, worked out great. I just bought a 2001 Ford Regency Conversion (not a high top) van with 68000 miles on it for $9k in very good condition for my family and I love it.

how do you hook up the rear seat { electric], where it will fold down into a bed ? This is for a 1994 G-20 Chevrolet Conversion Van.
