I ended up getting a fleet van used by Verizon back in Sept 2018, it's a 2009 and solid. Got it the day after they turned it in. Crazy that they kept this van so long but true. From it's condition, it didn't see any field use but was configured for it and we'll kept. But man did I see a lot of neglected Vans before this. The Ford's we're always the beaters.

I told you man, the Vans out there are all beat to crap. And Vans that were in the Houston floods are still being sold. You change registrations to different states a few times and that salvage title just disappears. And Carfax is a joke,

Hard to find good rigs. I was fortunate to find a 79 Dodge B300 high top, extended wheel base less than 20k miles. Doing a remodel on it. No rust. Straight body. 360 engine 4bbl carb, A727 transmission. The engine is mostly in the van, easy to access.

I've got a 1992 ford falcon 190 extended high top van class b motorhome. Generator , roof air etc . 124000 miles super clean. Not sure if that may be what you are looking for.....we are considering upgrading to a newer unit ..... for sale this spring ??......

Thanks for the offer. I think I’ve narrowed my search down to something a little smaller than that. I have something in mind that I’ve never seen built into a camper before. Now just to find one within my budget.

Vans are getting hard to find. I made the same mistake as you and sold mine. Now I have a Toyota motorhome I want to sell and find another van. High tops are near impossible to find.
@RubberTrampRenegade5 жыл бұрын
They are getting really hard to find without problems or rust. I scored one yesterday that is in great shape for an 89. No rust and made a 3.5 hour trip home no problem at 80 mph.
