Most cargo vans have very similar ground clearance that is sufficient to get to ~most~ desireable backcountry places if you're careful. But when considering extended cargo van Chevy/GMC vs. Ford, while the lengths are similar (~244in Chevy vs. 234in Ford), looking at Google images, it seems like the Ford has a MUCH greater overhang behind the rear tires:

[font=Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]2) Is this that big of a deal when going through ditches/gullies?[/font]
3) The extended Chevy/GMC rear overhang looks similar to that of the regular length Chevy/GMC cargo van (the front and rear wheels just look farther apart). With the same ground clearance, would you say the extended Chevy/GMC is just about as offroad capable as the regular length Chevy/GMC cargo van?
Thanks!
