I have created this blog to quell my love for vans, wagons, micros, and hatchbacks. I have found that while there is not a huge amount of people that love these vehicles, there are enough, but few publications/blogs/websites that cater to them. I just feel these segments never get enough attention and respect, and I really want to bring the spotlight onto them. My plan here is to get as much Japanese van, wagon, micro, and hatch information and pics in here as I can find. I’m not going to do just one type of tuning either, I want to gather as much awesome as I can in here and share it with the world.
I hope you enjoy it here and please, leave feedback to better help me spread the awesome that is Japanese vanning culture.
I try my best to give credit for everything I post. Sometimes I just cannot. If you see something of yours or know an uncredited owner, please let me know. If an owner would like something removed, don’t hesitate to ask.

Just wanted to say “Thank You!” I have been waiting a long time for a site that shows how awesome the JDM wagon scene is in Japan. This has got to be one of the greatest collections of cool JDM vans and wagons I have ever seen. I am a big fan of the Toyota Previas and Estimas but I’m really loving all the other rides you have on your site. Very informative and cool insights. Keep up the good work and keep em coming

YO! i love this blog.. no idea how i stumbled upon it but i’ve been regularly checking it.. keep up the posts brotha, you think you could post anything on 1990′s mazda mpvs?!?! please!?
Thanks guys, I really appreciate the kind words.
Andy, if I get some good info or pics on some MPV’s, I’ll be sure to post it up man.
Hey Bighindu…I love the blog! We’re out there! Haha. I don’t really know exactly when it started, but I was always the one who wanted the M5 but in a 5-door! I’ve always been far more interested in a car’s wagon version. But it didn’t stop there, I have always had a love-affair with vans (specifically European and Japanese vans)! I think it has something to do with the fact that in many ways a van is like a modern day trusty steed! No matter where you went with it, you could always stop and set-up for the night.
Okay well now I’m blabbing…but I just wanted to give you some props on the blog! I’m glad to know that there are a bunch of us lovers of the hatchbacks, wagons, micros and vans out there!

JJ, we are a weird bunch. I was the same way. My buddies all liked this and that, but I liked the wagon version or the van sitting behind the sports coupe. It’s a disease, but the most awesome disease you can have.
Thanks for the props my man.
Hey bro I love the blog. I’m always perusin thru Jap mags to see vans in the background at the shows. Thanks for bringin it. I had an original 73 impala wagon a while back, and now I’m workin on an astro van. I found some cool Japanese webpages with astro stuff on em. Check it out:

365, thanks man.
Shawn, thanks for the praise man. Also, as weird as it sounds, I have been following your previa for a long while. Ever since it was a beige colour.
Love your posts man! Don’t see too many hatchbacks, wagons, etc featured these days. Really love your blog!
Thanks man. I do this all out of love for the scene.
The Toyota Previa is great for families with 3-5 children, we where 4 kids at home and it was always nice to go on vacation with the toyota previa.
