Thank you. &nbsp;<img src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" alt="" align="absmiddle" border="0" />

Okay then. I've owned several white vans in the past but you've all confirmed this for me. Thanks!

I have a couple full size vans I'm going to check out in the next couple days. One is white and the other is dark blue. I'm partial to white because it stays cooler, looks cleaner longer, and white lasts longer than dark colors with minimal fuss.<br /><br />The only plus I see in having a dark...

I was wondering if anyone has noticed their MPG dropping after installing a high top on a full size van?<br /><br />Thanks<br /><br />Steve

The ad was deleted. Did you buy it?

I'm not a mechanic but I know enough about gas engines to know the difference between expensive noises and inexpensive noises when inspecting a vehicle to possibly buy. In my search for the right vehicle I've been ignoring diesels because the pockety-pockety sounds they make are counter to what...

Ooops, I'm a little fuzzy today due to a wedding I went to last night and the late night to not notice he replaced the big hinged doors with a solid wall...<em>even though I looked at the image of the hinged door he removed!</em>&nbsp;Yes, I agree with you 100% that not having another door...

So I'm assuming the disadvantages for a box van verses a regular cargo van are: much lower mpg, more windage when driving, and 2 more tires because of the dual rear wheels. Right?<br /><br /><br /><br />

Hey!&nbsp;<br /><br />This guy http://brotherscott.org/stepvan4.htm did a nice job of replacing a roll-up door with a wall. I would do the same except I'd probably have hinged door there to get in or out...or I'd put the hinged door on the passenger side.<br /><br />Yes I will check out your...

I was a cabinet maker and finish carpenter for years so I can do all this stuff myself. I'm out of the business but the cool thing is that a good friend who owns a cabinet shop has offered to let me use his shop to do whatever I need to the vehicle and crash there for free as long as it takes...

I dunno about that, but I do know that my friends and I used to talk about being invisible when we were little kids so we could check out girls.&nbsp;<img src="/images/boards/smilies/wink.gif" alt="" align="absmiddle" border="0" />

Hey guys,<br /><br />I just edited this thread and added <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Box Vans</strong></span> / <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Cube Vans</strong></span> to it. I did that because I'm thinking that box vans or cube vans (same thing as far...

Any idea how much labor and materials are for stabilizers and/or airbag shocks?<br /><br /><br /><br />

And what was it about the seating arrangement that you didn't like? Was it because the seats were almost like stools and too uncomfortable?<br /><br /><br />

Hey guys,<br /><br />I've been looking for the right full size extended cargo van to convert to a full time live aboard vehicle but as I've been looking I'm seeing quite a few decent looking used step vans and box vans/cube vans on Craigslist going for cheap prices. So I was wondering what the...

I found out about Glenn through that same Yahoo article too.&nbsp;<img src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" alt="" align="absmiddle" border="0" />

Thats an excellent idea for a water heater. Would you attach the pipes to the rack with stainless steel hose clamps?<br /><br />Steve

When I finally find the van I want I'm going to install a high top on it. If you look at this page here&nbsp;<a href="http://http//sportsmobile.com/1_rb-50ct.html">http://sportsmobile.com/1_rb-50ct.html</a>&nbsp;you will see in the second big photo down the page that they installed some cabinets...

Oh I didn't realize you stash away the big antenna when not using it. That is very clean and clever setup and you do nice work!<br /><br />1) What kind of TV shows can you pick up with a UHF/VHF antenna these days? In San Diego I think the only thing left since going digital a couple years ago...
