Re: (ET) ET's in cargo vans?
no problem at all in a full size van. I just recently hauled an E15 with
mower
deck, roto-tiller, cement wt block, 3 solar panels, a bicycle, a bunch of
tools
and odds and ends. I chose to rent a cargo van rather than borrow a
friends
pickup because of the difference in bed height. my ramps came from Harbor
Freight Tools $35 on sale, rated at 1000lbs. I went to the trouble of
supporting them midway with 2x4 uprights to the ground.

but not nearly that steep of course.
also I've hauled my E12S in my Toyota van with it's mower deck. It's a
tight
fit but fits nicely. I used a coupla 6ft 2x10's for ramps the first time
and
walked along side of it while steering and running the throttle. with a
full
size van you can actually sit on the tractor and drive it up and in the
van,
having more headroom than a mini-van. if the e-trac is not running I
found
that the seatblet anchors make good winching points.
have fun,
