We all know that the standard white cargo vans are attractive prey to folks looking for expensive tools and equipment they can steal and sell. So I'm just wondering about some possible strategies for defusing this expectation, such as:
1. Buying a non-white van (although they seem relatively rare, and mechanical soundness is Job 1)
2. Painting a white van a different color (which costs thousands)
3. Adding distinctly personal decals such as cartoon characters, other pop-culture imagery etc. that a commercial van would never have (at the risk of making your vehicle more recognizable and therefore less stealthy: "Hey, that same Calvin and Hobbes fan keeps parking here....")
What do you think? Or is it a non-issue?
