No but used to dream about owning a murals van as a kid. I was 13 years old when the 70's ended and I can still recall dreaming about "going cross-country" in a van or on a HD. Why I thought that was appealing was probably from the likes of Easy Rider, Vanishing Point, Smokey & the Bandit etc romanticing the "freedom of the road". In hindsight- even within their fictional setting- they were all characters on the fringe of society. The van projected a hedonistic attitude that nothing since has been able to come even close to recapturing.
