I'd be happy to vote for the van if I could find a place to do so!!
LOTS of click bait on that page but I don't see a "Vote" button anywhere.

| The vote goes live tomorrow on the Hot Wheels instagram page. The car with the most likes wins the vote. |

I love the speedo.
The sidepipes are funny...and neat at the same time.
The asymmetrical grill is awesome.
The mudflap girl is anachronistic and could be left back in time to be forgotten.
If they put the bumpers in full-scale production they'd sell hundreds of 'em.
Thanks for posting this.

i don't know how the Muller stores are in USA, but here in EU, they jsut got three kind of models available, for all EU fellers who would like to get their hands on. Quite big also, 1:24. Bought two, for 18€ it's a bargain

What a great Christmas present that would make!
Too bad we don't have Target here. I'm sure the shipping would be outrageous.

I think it's free shipping in the States...get it sent here - https://www.seawings.ca/
It'll be 18 CAD + tax to get it over (and you'll have to pick up in Victoria)
