Penndot Fact Sheet
FACT SHEET Van/Mini-Van Titling and Registration Procedures PURPOSE This fact sheet explains the titling and registration procedures for van and mini-van type vehicles being titled and registered in Pennsylvania. DEFINITIONS Motor home: A motor vehicle designed or adapted for use as mobile dwelling or office; except a motor vehicle equipped with a truck-camper. Passenger Car: A motor vehicle, except a motorcycle, designed primarily for the transportation of persons and designed for carrying no more than 15 passengers including the driver and primarily used for the transportation of persons. The term includes motor vehicles which are designed with seats that may be readily removed and reinstalled, but does not include such vehicles if used primarily for the transportation of property. Truck: A motor vehicle designed primarily for the transportation of property. The term includes motor vehicles designed with seats that may be readily removed and reinstalled if those vehicles are primarily used for the transportation of property. GENERAL RULE Van and mini-van type vehicles are designed by vehicle manufacturers to be used in a multitude of different ways. Many vans are designed with seats for the transportation of persons much like a normal passenger car or station wagon; however, some are manufactured for use as a motor home, while others are designed simply for the transportation of property. Therefore, the proper type of registration plate depends on how the vehicle is to be primarily used. The following rules should help clarify the proper procedures required to title and register a van/mini-van: To register as a passenger car - The van/mini-van must be designed with seating for no more than 15 passengers including the driver, and used for non-commercial purposes. -
General Services Administration Fleet AFV Program Report for Fiscal Year 2010 February 8, 2011
U.S. General Services Administration Fleet AFV Program Report for Fiscal Year 2010 February 8, 2011 Introduction This report summarizes the fiscal year (FY) 2010 performance of the U.S. General Services Administration’s (GSA) internal fleet in meeting the requirements of Executive Order (E.O.) 13423, Strengthening Federal Environmental, Energy, and Transportation Management; E.O. 13514, Federal Leadership in Environmental, Energy, and Economic Performance; the Energy Policy Act of 1992 (EPAct of 1992, Public Law (P.L). 102-486) as amended by the Energy Conservation Reauthorization Act of 1998 (ECRA, P.L. 105-388); and the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct of 2005, P. L. 109-58). GSA’s internal fleet is entirely leased from the GSA Federal Acquisition Service (FAS) in order to meet these requirements. Overview of Legislative and Executive Order Requirements • EPAct of 1992 (P.L. 102-486) requires that 75 percent of all covered light-duty vehicles (LDVs) acquired for Federal fleets in FY 1999 and beyond to be alternative fueled vehicles (AFVs). The act applies to fleets that have 20 or more LDVs capable of being centrally fueled, and are operated in a metropolitan statistical area (MSA) with a population of more than 250,000 based on the 1980 census. Certain emergency, law enforcement, and national defense vehicles are exempt from these requirements. EPAct of 1992 also sets a goal of using replacement fuels to displace at least 30 percent of the projected consumption of petroleum motor fuel in the United States annually by the year 2010. • The ECRA (P.L. 105-388) amended the EPAct of 1992 to allow one AFV acquisition credit for every 450 gallons of pure biodiesel fuel consumed in vehicles over 8,500 pounds gross vehicle weight rating. -
We Have Two Cars. One Is a 25 Year Old Volvo Station Wagon and the Other Is a 12 Year Old Small Vehicle. Neither of These Two V
We have two cars. One is a 25 year old Volvo station wagon and the other is a 12 year old small vehicle. Neither of these two vehicles is particularly environmentally friendly Like quite a few other people we know, we have been waiting to be able to buy a SMALL electric or hybrid vehicle for 3 years or so, but there still seems zero possibility of doing so and the cost of keeping our current vehicles going especially in the case of the smaller vehicle, is often more than the car is worth. (The Prius is simply not a usefully designed vehicle for us. Lexus also and expensive, and Phev unnecessary AWD. In fact most of these vehicles are a very un exciting design and hybrids don't seem to have an adequate battery) It is ridiculous when it would be possible to buy and use an electric car in a major city anywhere in Europe. What seems also to be the usual short sighted and behind the times thinking in Australia is to NOT have any plan in place for putting in place charging stations (including sufficient stations) for such vehicles in relevant public places for the future. There is a good reason why most people prefer a hatchback for a small vehicle, or a wagon or SUV. These are useful vehicles compared to a sedan. It is not for nothing that the Renault Zoe is the most popular electric car in Europe. There is no country in the world that can have a car industry without subsidies, but those subsidies go far further in bringing benefits than the actual dollar amount. -

Route 66: Dream of the Mother Road Exhibit to Showcase Vintage Station Wagons at America's Car Museum
Route 66: Dream of the Mother Road Exhibit to Showcase Vintage Station Wagons at America’s Car Museum Contact: PCG – Eric Pylvanainen (424) 903-3685 ([email protected]) ACM – Ashley Bice (253) 683-3954 ([email protected]) TACOMA, Wash. (Mar. 16, 2015) – America’s Car Museum (ACM), the largest automotive museum in North America, is kicking off the summer vacation season on March 27 at its Route 66 exhibit with an entertaining new display featuring memorable vintage American Station Wagons that once adorned the iconic highway. The new display will run through the summer and include wagons such as the Chevy Nomad, Ford Ranch Wagon and Buick Special Riviera 49D Estate Wagon. Route 66 once gauged a growing American economy, connecting Chicago to the Pacific Ocean, the “road to riches” was traveled by millions of American families. A road so quintessentially American, Route 66 has become a permanent part of our cultural memory, and there are few vehicles that conjure up the delight of the family vacation like the great American Station Wagon. “The station wagon was America’s family car before the SUV came rolling down the highway, and many of us recall a time when we would hit Route 66 in the old family wagon,” says ACM President and CEO David Madeira. “The beauty of ACM is that it tells the story of America through the automobile, so whether you’re an avid enthusiast or just feeling nostalgic, you’ll get your kicks on Route 66,” says Madeira. The exhibit’s featured vehicles include: 1949 Buick Super Estate Wagon 1950 Oldsmobile Futuramic 88 Station Wagon 1954 Chevrolet Bel Air Station Wagon 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air Nomad Wagon 1956 Ford Ranchwagon 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Nomad Station Wagon 1957 Buick Special Riviera 49D Estate Wagon 1966 Ford Country Squire Station Wagon 1968 Chevrolet Impala Station Wagon 1983 Mercury Colony Park Series Wagon For more information on Route 66: Dream of the Mother Road and other exhibits currently on display, visit www.lemaymuseum.com. -
What Could Be Better Than a Red 1949 Cosmo Convertible?
Volume 21 Issue 8 Our 20th year August 1, 2021 What could be better than a red 1949 Cosmo Convertible? Why, not much, says Nels Woods, happy owner of this big red beast. My beloved 1949 Lincoln Cosmopolitan convertible has been in my possession for one year now. The story starts, that is, three years prior in 2018. I was a freshman student attending McPherson College for their automotive restoration program. I was 19 at the time and chasing a Welcome to the dream in the field I love, automotive restoration. I felt as if automobiles were more than just a vehicle. Classic cars are history, an essential part of not only American culture but others as well. Northstar News, the My friends and I decided to take a fall trip to the great state of Texas. My grandmother lives in monthly publication of Texas, so I am never opposed to visiting. We arrived and had our fun; then, it was time to visit the Northstar Region grandma. She had mentioned a friend of hers with a classic car collection. I didn't think much of it, but I was curious as to what this collection was. My grandmother drove me over to her friend of the Lincoln and Joseph Hill's house, but his friends knew him as "Mac." Continental Owners The 87-year-old Texan answered the door with a smile, excited to see a young fella inspired Club. We value your by old cars. I had recently been working on my ‘1949 Studebaker 2R-15 pickup truck at the col- lege, which Mac loved to see progress. -
