Glad you had a good time. If the van doesn't get used much make sure you charge up the battery every once and a while to keep it healthy. Lead acid batteries don't like going completely flat and being recharged. You might find the stereo on your van can drain your battery in a couple weeks if it's not getting used. Keeping a battery charged up can make it last a whole lot longer than one that gets flat and recharged a few times a year.
