Sold van can't find replacement.

[David]

I sold my camper van so I could move on to my next build, but for the life of me I can't find anything I like as a replacement. I've gone nearly 3 weeks full time in my truck..

I just can't find anything I like. Was trying to buy a vanagon but most need too much work. I'd still like one but only at a time I can do a full rebuild.

I looked at a class b today that looked like a conversion van and would of made a nice semi stealth camper but the guy took a deposit before I got there..

Grrrrr

The vanagons are really cool and they are loved in certain circles. I have two lady friends who each have one and from their stories, they are real moneypits! After hearing about their experiences, I'll stick with my boring E-150. Sometimes, boring is a good thing

Yes I agree they are money pits, hence the reason I'm not touching one unless I have the time,money and a place to rebuild it. I mainly like them for their size. I hate driving a full size around but most smaller vans waste too much space with the front engine.

There may be some good news over the long haul. &nbsp;The new vans from Dodge and Ford should push the price of the older models lower. &nbsp;This should start helping in September when fleets start buying the new models and selling off the old ones.<br><br>Of course, there is the issue of upfitting and converting.
