Ca. plates are in the format 1ABC123 so it's definitely not a 7 in the middle.

I voted crack pipe, purely because my girlfriend-at-the-time had a hand-me-down exactly like this from her parents. It was utterly, utterly broken and nothing that got fixed ever stayed fixed.

Which is itself a rebadged Nissan/Renault. It's a little larger (too close to the existing vans in cargo volume, if not footprint) and even though it looks incredibly fresh, is a 12-year-old design.

I would expect that the Opel Movano replacement will also come to the US as a RWD, full size van to replace the existing Chevys. It is actually a rebadged Renault, but as Renault and Nissan are in the same group, it also exists as a Nissan NV400. http://www.nissan.co.uk/GB/en/vehicles…

If it's going to fit below global Ranger, it's got to be based on Escape or Transit Connect, depending on whether they think the market is likely to be mainly kids or small tradesmen trading down from an F150, or fleet buyers.

I'm seeing a late 90s Dodge Avenger here... small wheels, long overhangs, slightly upturned rear window, black mirrors all check out.
