They were certainly bigger in every way, not to good on stopping though. The trim level was good. Mine was a 3 on the tree, front bench seat which wasn't as supportive as say the Holdens I owned or this Ford van now.
Going around corners you could feel the body rolling due to the super soft ride.
Most notable drive was loading it upto the window sills with hard pressed commons (bricks) and taking them home, bonnet when skyward while the rear valance sitting on the ground.
With the rear seat down it was huge in the back.
But that 245 Hemi made it worth owning, swapped it for another Holden Panel van (HJ)
