I'm not from NYC, but I remember when my homeboy visited the Bronx in 96 and called me to tell me he fell in love with a girl in Hunts Point

When was this? The amount of times I took dollar vans back in the day, I feel like I should have run into 1 of these just off of pure chance.

All through the 90s and yeah you probably just got lucky lol

dollar vans still exist on Flatbush, I think they just don't go as far north as they used to but they definitely still run south of Grand Army Plaza. Also, very few vans nowadays, a lot of repainted short buses. Gas is going up and there's only so much they can raise the price.
