Turtle Van (1987 TV series)

The TurtleVan (also known as Party Wagon) is the Turtles' main transport in the 1987 series. It appeared throughout the whole series. In the 2003 series, the Turtles also have a TurtleVan, but a totally different one. The Van did not appear in the Mirage Comics, or the four movies.

History
It was just an ordinary van that belonged to Baxter Stockman (who, both along with the van appeared for the first time in "A thing about rats"). After defeating him and delivering him to the police, the Turtles take his van to drive to Shredder's mouser factory (and destroy it). In the next episode "Hot rodding teenagers from Dimension X", Donatello rebuilds Stockman's van in to The TurtleVan, equipping with all kinds of technology the Turtles found in a abandoned factory, in order to find the Technodrome easily and fast.

After sending the Technodrome (along with Shredder and Krang) into Dimension X, the Turtles keep the van and since then it is their main transport. The Van is driven by all four turtles and (sometimes) April; in the last two season the Van is accompanied by Carter's motorcycle.

2003 series
In the 2003 series, the turtles also uses a van, but it is totally different. It is more a tank-like jeep, instead of a scrappy van. And it also always belonged to the Turtles instead they took one from a nerdy scientist (Baxter) and rebuild it.
