They would change the oil and filter on them religiously every 3k miles.
The company started getting real "cheap" and started changing oil every 7500 miles just before I quit. I noticed a couple months later they wound up purchasing a brand new fleet of Vans.
Maybe they already knew they were getting a new fleet and decided to save the oil change money. Why waste money on a van going to the crusher.
