Hello folks!
I have been looking at a few of the smaller cargo vans. My favorite of them is 2013 Ford Transit Connect xlt wagon premium. Found 2 with 40k miles good carfax's Both around 12k.
I have checked out and going to look at a 2015 nissan nv200 tomorrow and might go look at the rebranded for chevy version monday (was a mobile office for someone with 50k miles for 12k
Seen but didn't test drive 2 promaster city's. I do like their look but have read the ram promaster post. Both are under 50k miles 13k or less good carfax's reports 1 had every maint and mileage showing up.
I am not planning on living in it, but who knows, I filed for disability last week. Will be for regular driving use (I really could do with a comfortable bed when my back starts spasming) and some travel. Gas mileage is real important when no money will be coming in for a time.
12k is the limit. I did look at astro's online but not wanting something so old. "Family" would give me grief "Oh see you bought an old car and..." I know the tune, so I try to avoid it. And I did dream oneday about a shortbus conversion (I am pretty handy, built 2 teardrop trailer sized gypsy caravans...and always like messing with something...maybe converting small vans with the light weight components might be a new career lol)
Any thoughts or suggestions?
thanks
