    I think there should be a longer and slightly wider H-series van with several rows for passengers. There was a mod for this a while ago but it doesn't work anymore.

    Yeah, I loved AR162B's H-Series mod. Too bad it hasn't been updated. Maybe even a Type A/Short school bus could be made out of the H-Series!

    I agree, we should get a passenger van.

    why should it be wider? usually companies such as ford keep their passenger vans same dimension as the cargo versions,except for lengthening the rear end a bit. The real life passenger vans actually have a huge flaw when it comes to emergency maneuvering,when fully loaded the van is 3 times more likely to roll than empty.

    that's just my 5 cents though.

    Wouldn't it be the other way around? As in it would be more likely to roll while empty than when it's fully loaded?

    Oops, posted the same thing twice. Fixed.

    Oh, I forgot you were updating it! Awesome! :D

    I also really loved the Grand Marshal mod, especially the police versions. Those are being updated as well, right?

    When it is loaded the weight in the van is around the cetner-ish near the top,as more people are added to the van the COG (center of gravity) goes higher and near the rear of the van,here i will show a video demonstrating the physics of a 15-passenger van stability.
