The Tank is the black, barely functional conversion van used by Mystik Spiral to haul around their band equipment. Supposedly owned by drummer Max Tyler, it's seen driven in the series by Trent and Jane Lane. It is described as "indestructible," but appears to break down frequently. Based on its appearance, it is likely based on a 1978–1982 GMC Vandura/Chevrolet G series. In "Road Worrier," it broke down and had to be repaired using Jane's glue gun. At times its windows haven't worked and at one point Trent mentions the locks don't work either. Later, the speedometer is stuck at 10 mph. To add to these headaches, it also "eats gas," according to Trent.
