That and you can put a bunch of bicycles inside so they're out of the weather and less likely to be stolen.

I have an AWD Express and totally forgot about the conversion setups with captains chairs and sliding doors. Mine is a normal 8 passenger with suicide doors on both sides, I added a third bench, heavier leaf springs in the back and a 3" key lift up front. Coupled with some nice AT tires it is a beast, I feel like I appreciate it more and more every day...I had 800lbs of fill dirt behind the rear axle the other day, didn't even sag.
Anyways...OP, the AWD is fairly common in the conversion Express vans so they are not hard to find and get a great deal on. It is basically a Suburban you can stand up in.
