    Chevy Express question

    I’m looking at Chevy Express vans and wanted to know the pros / cons of the 1500 with the v6 versus the 2500 with the v8. Is the v6 strong enough? Won’t be towing anything and like to move more often than most people.  Any help is appreciated.

    Eureka Camper/Travel Trailer

    Has anyone had any experience with Eureka Campers / travel trailers? They are in Tennessee and seem to be a step up from the campers like Runaway or the smaller Little Guys. They even have one model that has a stand up shower.

    Rebuild 91 Dodge short van

    I'm a little interested as this is the sorta thing I'm looking for right now, but i don't know about the 1969 motor in it? MPG you quote on CL seems to be about as good as a class C. Why do you have such an older motor in it? Thanks, Todd

    I am considering the Chevy Express as well but I'm more focused on V6 or V8 because of my towing needs for a trailer with motorcycle in it.

    Anyone have any experience with Transvan's by Chevy?  Or a Travelcraft GMC Vandura? I've seen some of these lately for some reasonable prices. One of these would solve my needing to stand up in my future van.   If you have any experience with these, please share. Thanks, Todd
