Ben Danaher, 34, a singer/songwriter from Nashville, Tenn., on his 2007 Chevrolet Express touring van, as told to A.J. Baime.

Years ago, I had a band and we were playing 200 shows a year, mostly in Texas. We had four guys in a pickup, and it got to be, like, holy cow, we are going to kill each other. I had a friend who owned a car dealership in Dallas. I told him I needed a van and he had a used one on the lot. So in 2010, I bought my Chevy Express.
