I prefer to drive the van instead of the car for the following reasons,
1, its higher up so you get a better view
2, most people move out of the way
3, more spacious up front
4, never have a problem getting the shopping in
5, you have the room in the back just in case you need to move anything big
6, insurance is cheaper than my car
7, you can make a day van/ camper out of them
8, you can get away with customising it your own way
Bad parts of using a van as a daily driver,
1, limited to where you can part (multi story car parks are a no go) and some car parks have barriers at 2m
2, tip permits are a pain
3, bigger to wash
4, people are cheeky and expect you to move stuff for them
Fuel wise swb low roof is your best bet on fuel economy I get around 35mpg but my vans 1/2 to 3/4 loaded most of the time with ladders on the roof.
Someone will be along to add to the list am sure. N
