Vanzilla

Vanzilla is the van owned by the Loud family on The Loud House. Originally owned by Lynn Loud Sr.'s grandfather and later by Lynn Sr.'s father, Leonard, it has four rows of seating, enough for all thirteen members of the family. However, it is also in very poor shape, as it has a broken lock and its air conditioner doesn't work, and it is also prone to breaking down while on the road.
==Episodes that focus on Vanzilla==
In "", Lincoln attempts to get the best seat in Vanzilla for their family road trip, which he calls the "Sweet Spot" (hence the episode's title). Unfortunately, his sisters get wise to his plan and get in a fight with him over it, only for Rita to stop them and force them back to bed, saying that she doesn't want to see anyone near the car until 7 a.m. When the clock strikes 7:00 the next morning, the Loud kids (minus Lily) begin an all-out war over the Sweet Spot, which ultimately wrecks Vanzilla, resulting in the road trip being cancelled, and the kids are forced to spend the weekend sitting in the living room until they can get along.
In "", the kids and Rita, tired of Vanzilla constantly breaking down, manage to convince Lynn Sr. that he should trade it in for a new van. However, when he becomes obsessively protective of the new van (which he calls "Veronica"), the kids and Rita tire of it and work on convincing him to get Vanzilla back. It is notably revealed in that episode that Lynn Sr. hopes to someday pass Vanzilla on to Lincoln, something he does not look forward to.
The episode "" focuses on Lana, Lynn Sr., and Leonard working together to fix Vanzilla when it appears to have broken down for good. They find that the cause of the problem is that the car's left-crank cylinder gasket has become so rusted that it can never work. In trying to find a replacement, they learn from Flip that they could maybe get one from the man who originally designed the van, Freddy Fungo (whose surname is embossed on the front of the van; however, Vanzilla is missing the "O" because it fell off and Leonard, not knowing what it really was, used it as a belt buckle). The three make their way into the old Fungo van factory where Freddy has stayed hidden from the outside world. It is revealed here that Freddy also came from a big family who never had enough room whenever they traveled in their car. He had designed the van for big families like his, but nobody ever bought them because sport cars were all the rage. After learning how much joy that three generations of Loud family members have gotten from using his van, Freddy agrees to build a new left-crank cylinder gasket for them; the new gasket, fortunately, gets Vanzilla working again.
