    i've been a mopar guy for many years now, I've owned several - i currently drive an antique dodge truck as my daily, and i honestly thought i'd seen it all... this made me so happy to watch - japanese car culture is just fantastic!

    Dude is drifting an automatic open diff van. People should have no excuse when it comes to drifting.

    • @ploppercon
      @ploppercon 6 лет назад +19

      torquey engine + no weight on rear wheels + skinny tires + hydraulic e breke = drift. not as hard as it may seem, still hard, though!

    • @keeganwebber
      @keeganwebber 6 лет назад +28

      Ryan, i have the 1 ton, long wheelbase version of this van (with the 350ci v8) and it is horrendously underpowered. To get it to rotate is no small feat.

    Never stop doing this Alexi, whether it's for fun or work, i love every video you post from the super rare GT-R's to the PVC drifting i love each and every one of them. Also you as a person have the right attitude and character for this, not over the top crazy and not arrogant or rude/aggressive, i love it keep it up. Thank you from australia

      @GripAttack777 6 лет назад +1

      One of the customers at the last shop I worked at had one (a 96?) with relatively low miles, around 60k if I'm correct. Well taken care since it was new.

    • @ber-js5we
      @ber-js5we 6 лет назад +6

      liam it's because Vans were considered cool in the 70's and maybe the 80's...sometimes with badass murals and designs. They had a surfer or hippy vibe about them.
      but as time went on, they slowly got stigmatized with a creepy/abducter/pedo/homeless like image. Just the way it is. Bad mpg doesn't help either

    A dodge van and a snow covered parking lot is probably the most fun my family ever had in a car together. Nothing like having your father take the family wagon and do some solid drifts.

  • @darius2640
    @darius2640 6 лет назад +31

    That wasn't a long van. There are two wheelbases and three lengths. That is the medium length. The long vans (called the Maxi-van) are nicknamed "carpet vans" because they can carry huge rolls of carpets or conduit.
    I currently own a 1996 panel B2500. Runs strong at 393000 miles with the 318ci engine. Watching these videos makes me want to build a Dajiban!

      Wow you know something about Dodge vans huh?
      5 years ago I was given, yes given, a '97 conversion B2500 318. It's my first Dodge and my first van. I'm about to turn 55 and I love my van. I've been redoing the interior to make it more usable/comfortable, but have no idea what possibilities lie under the hood... I'm no mechanic.
      Do you know of or have any ideas? I spent a year in Okinawa (80s) this video kinda gave me flash backs lol.

    • @johnwren3976

    if they're having such problems overheating why dont they add a hood vent and roof vent then install a radiator up there and run a hose down to the engine. might look a little goofy but its worth not having an overheating van. xD

    • @thevillageidiot70

      Drifting means going sideways a lot. That means less air hits the radiator at the front because of the sideway ness

      I absolutely love my 97 2500 standard wheel base. 318 cargo. They'll peel it from my cold dead hands. I can tell you from first hand experience there are few things in this world cooler than a sik as hell Dodge van. my dream is to eventually 4x4 it and swap in a 4 cylinder Cummins.

      yup mmhm oh yeah 4bt swap. Make sure you turbo it though if you do. Nothing like a boosted diesel.
