Perhaps equally as notorious as the A-Team themselves was their typical mode of transportation. Everybody remembers Mr. T 'B.A. Baracus' driving around in that black van with the red stripe on the side and red mag wheels. People often wonder about the details of that van. I have listed below a few details about it as well as a video of somebody doing a burnout in a replica of the famed vehicle. I thought it was pretty cool. By the way, what kind of car insurance do you think the A-Team had on this van with all of the gun fire and stunt driving?
