UPDATE:
I donated my classic 93 Dodge Ram camper van 9 months ago and now I'm part timing in this 2018 Nissan NV 1500 v6 cargo van.
90% done with the build out over this past summer. (just need more trim work caulking and more insulation on back doors)
It now has a ladder rack-remote air fan-small fridge-sink-Propane heat source -butane stove and collaspsible toliet.
I found out a hammock is better on my back and I can use it indoors /outdoors and it takes up less space.
By me being an artist this van is also a mini art studio.
I didn't check all the specs before purchasing and found out this baby has 4 catalytic converters -of course the more you
have the more problems . I will address that on another post.
I look forward to reading the interesting posts again and peeking the new members .

I like those vans!

All the newish rigs have a bunch of expensive cats... which is why they were getting stolen a lot during covid. A few seconds with a battery powered saw, and done. On my Tundra the cost to replace was $6k !!!... if they were available, which they weren't.

Yeah -I hear you brother. I'm going to have to buy some locking mechanism to secure them. My check engine light stays on -and my mechanic says I'm' okay for now..the fuel
is burning rich.'

Be careful running rich. That can damage your catalytic converters. What is the check engine light code?
