Renzenberger and PTI are two of the bigger players in this business. All I ever see for them in my area is vans; I don't know what the "clown car" term refers to. Date: 02/14/13 09:58 Re: PTI Vans.... Author: RI4444 The term "clown car" is a nickname for a minivan!Nothing quite like a 250mile,5hr ride in the fetal position.

Posted from iPhone Date: 02/14/13 11:52 Re: PTI Vans.... Author: DaveL Just to set the record straight; Renzenberger out here in the wild, wild west,
uses Ford Expeditions and Chevy Suburbans, with the occasional Chevy box van. DaveL Date: 02/14/13 15:04 Re: PTI Vans.... Author: kodachrome9319 Those minivans aren't allowed in the division I work in, only GMC Savanna (Chevy Express), and Expeditions are allowed. I hate both, but if I had to pick, I'd take the van, as it'd stand up a lot better in a collision.
Date: 02/14/13 17:05 Re: PTI Vans.... Author: therailnut I work for Railcrew Xpress. They use full sized vans and expeditions. At my particular hub we use full size ford vans. although I have been told Ford has quit making vans so I wonder what new transportation will be.

 Date: 02/15/13 00:07 Re: PTI Vans.... Author: MarcelineSub I wonder if the weird looking Nissans(?) will make it into crew service? They have a fugly front end but look like a E-Ford from the front doors back on the outside.
