OK , he Barth didnt work out, only reinforced my belief that even the best made RVs are complete garbage,and the stepvan didnt work out, mainly because it wasnt in as near as good of shape as I hoped it would be and I didnt have a space where I could work on it, Having to drive 3 hours everytime I went to try and get it running got old really got old quick , and th pop up also reinforced My belief that commercial made campers are total junk. I happened upon a good deal that my buddies current GF has which is a 1998 Ford E350 cutaway van . 5.4, A4od and a 4.10 geared rear end is has a bulletproof drive train. Its has been well maintained and I believe its more than likely had a new engine and trans installed at some point, It drove to the spot where it currently sits. 12 ft long 8 ft wide box with of all things NO rear door but has a factory installed side man door with steps on the inside and a pass through from the cab to the box with a sliding door that latches, It was an electrical utility truck of some sort and has a couple of interior florescent I believe lights inside and 2 roof vents one with a dual squirrel cage blower. Its got 370k on the dash, Drivers seat is in good shape so I suspects its mostly highway miles. Inside the box is currently used for storage so I couldn't get any real good pics of the inside. Needs tires and a battery and I will run. hope to get back over to check it out, its about an hour away from whee I currently live.
