Carlos' van is a 1969 Ford Econoline.
Robbie Thompson in an interview with TVLine, confirmed that Carlos exists in the Supernatural universe, referring to the fact that in his episode "Meta Fiction", Sam talks to a hunter called Carlos on the phone and in the The Winchesters finale "Hey, That's No Way to Say Goodbye", Dean addresses Carlos by name as if familiar with him. Thompson said "...in my mind, it was always the same Carlos, just a different universe. It was kind of a way to acknowledge that a little bit in a way without him meddling any further in this universe."
