Ironhide and Tote the only vans in the village?

Are Ironhide and Tote the only Vans in G1/G2 . You have plenty of pickups and 4x4 of various sizes but nothing a British builder would recognise apart from these two .

Ratchet and First Aid are the nearest you'd get to your actual stereotypical white van.

Plus there doesn't seem to be anything in between pick -up and 18 wheeler sizes. No delivery truck , no 7.5 tonner . No "florist truck" being used by the FBI for surveillance.

Wheeljack was a Cybertronian van! He was, when he appeared in Season 1, Episode 1. Bumblebee steals rods and slots them in Wheeljack's ample rear storage space, no seats, no windows, ergo van!

I thought he was a Mini-Van.

City car. Like one of those ugly little fiat things.

When I just got back into TFs I also used to think that Skids was some kind of (deformed) Van, i mean, Cliffjumper never looked like a Porsche. But it turns out the toy is actually very accurate. Well, most Diaclones had accurate alt. modes, as opposed to Microman vehicles.
