Yes mine is the swb.  I would like to put in a 650 as I have to buy water and it's a pain going to get it every day.
At least then I could go every other day.

I have a Hiace, mechanically bullet proof it seems. Bit agricultural to drive. Had no problems with mine so far. Twin batteries too - I run my pump directly off the second battery.

650L in mine (and three seats in the cab).

Bullet proof.  Mine had done 100K when I bought it six years ago and it's never missed a beat.

Very small van for its payload, very nimble.
