Yep. Now imagine one of those underneath a semi hauling sugar cane. - KevinB, Sep 27, 2010
Also imagine 19 people inside that van at the time of the accident. - KevinB, Sep 27, 2010

Never mind. I just found pictures. It's a model name, the Renault Trafic. It is a van.

I had the context, including a picture of the crushed van. I'm just unfamiliar with Renault model names sold in Argentina. :-) - KevinB, Sep 27, 2010
