    Utilimaster Van engine size

    I'm really bummed because I lost the bid on this utilimaster van. I guess I will have to go on looking for another one or something similar. That van had less than 60,000 miles & a generator. So on the look out again. I'd appreciate any tips to find something reliable. I have a lot of concerns...

    anyone near Pittsburgh PA interested in a van?

    Sorry to hear you're having problems but likely I would have bought it and had to pay a mechanic to fix everything :( I've got a bid in for a 1999 Ford P250 Cargo van with 90,000 miles. It has rust around the wheel wells and ripped seats but I am hoping it runs ok. I was wondering. I'm...

    Hi new from Ohio

    Hi! Just got serious about van living and am starting to work towards getting a vehicle then building. I'm a little overwhelmed feeling like there is so much to know and so many mistakes I could make. On a tight budget mistakes can be rough. I work full time so I need to be mindful of how I will...

    Thanks for your responses. I've been trying to do my homework but obviously have very limited knowledge. If my offer for this vehicle is accepted I will begin the planning for the build. I would be glad for any advice you all could offer! Presently I've been thinking about what kind of...

    Utilimaster Van engine size

    New to this site and RV living. I've found an 1987 Utilimaster Van in good condition that I believe would be perfect for conversion. However (again knowing nothing) I was told that the GMC P3500 5.7l V8 was too small of engine to carry itself and camper equipment. This seems confusing to me as...
