A full-size van is longer and stronger van than a minivan. Like all vans, full-size vans are boxy road vehicles designed for the transportation of goods, services, and people. Originally using the name full-size van to market the new van class in North America, full-size vans were introduced during the 1960s for the sole purpose to move objects between places. A full-size van has easy access between the driver seat and the cargo space in the back. It also features a sliding door to go in and out of the van quickly.
