Details

Example of a Ford Transit van of the same model generation (early 2000s) as The Stiff

"The Stiff" is the name by which Melisende refers to Bouton Funerary Service's brown Ford Transit van. The windowless cargo area is fitted with a transport deck to secure the body transport gurney (AKA cot) and a rack of bins on the left side for supplies.

Given the Stiff's purpose, Melisende has to put up with jokes about the van. The most common is:

“You know what Ford stands for, don’t you?”
“Found On Road Dead.”[1]
