Hello All!
So I know I said I was going to start this awhile ago... and I have actually been working away at it for a couple of months. I've taken a few pics along the way and I figured I would get going on this log before I get too far behind!
The Backstory:
I purchased this van partly used from a dealership. It is a 2016 Chevy Express 2500 HD model and only had about 9,500 miles on it. Originally I had hoped to sell my previous vehicle outright and find something more used... and less expensive. But given my recent history of vehicle switcheroos, which I wont get into right now, I felt it was okay to trade my Subaru Forrester in on this. And while I will still have a fairly hefty payment for awhile, at least I'm paying on something that will be suitable for my new lifestyle. Not to mention there are some distinct advantages to having a basically new vehicle. I still have a warranty for some time, and I shouldn't have to worry too much about mechanical issues for awhile other than routine maintenance. Plus it gave me a clean slate to start my buildout!
