Will a vertical photo be sideways? No, it shows correctly. Same process. Second trip in NV SMB to Arches in November, 2013. Early storm and temp in mid-teens. Sat it out with a cup of coffee at sunrise.

Another NV 2500 high top for sale on conversiontrader.com 2018 for $65,000 obo with 13500 miles. Good looking conversion. Serious coffee drinker(s). Have to admit that there is nothing better than a cup of coffee watching the sunrise...

Welcome. Like your attitude and your wife’s good judgement. You will love your new truck. The 4x4 version has to be one of the best/toughest looking vans out there. Now that photos can be attached, you will have to keep us up to date.

Above also works when adding photos to prior posts. Click edit, “choose file,” select photo library, click on photo and “done.” Photo will be added. Be sure to click save. I added 4 photos to SMB travel. No idea how many photos can be posted.

Mostly I use my phone and the “old” way of adding works again for new posts. Just use “click to choose file” and you will get “take photo or video” or “photo library.”

Like what you have done so far.

Welcome back or welcome if that applies. Will you be more involved?

Wow! Opened up mobile forum and thought I was on the wrong site. Woke me up! Is is this a sign of renewed interest or is google messing with me? Like the new look. Tried posting a photo photo but not sure how. Menu choices aren’t straight forward or beyond my ability.

Assume you are talking your Sienna so no need to park your RV. Try staying in the Grand Tetons or Jackson. We camped at Signal Mountain but they also have a lodge. Not cheap I imagine. We commuted to Yellowstone for a day trip before heading north through Mammoth Hot Springs. If we could afford it, we would taken a tour in the 1920s yellow buses. As it turned out, our day trip was cold, windy and sometimes wet. No traffic. On the way out the weather was perfect; the traffic was awful. We also are planning a trip. Bad Lands and maybe east to states we have never been.

NV2500 HD High Top 2014 & me & my Dog

Welcome. Not a common problem at least on this forum. YouTube has NV specific videos for electrical and latch issues. Just google -
One thing about targeted ads or apps, they sometimes get it right. The App Store recently came up with these. Chimani National Parks. Families with kids will love this, as you can track the parks, monuments or historic sites etc you visit. You get a badge and points for each visit by year, past and present. More points for current visits (check ins). There are also perk savings. iNaturalist. (National Geographic). Take a photo with this app and it will tell you what it is. It works. Peak Visor. With cell service or downloaded maps it will provide you with Mountain names and elevation. Also has a compass. We have not tried this. REI Parks has added more parks and monuments. Works on GPS. I believe all work with android. Happy Holidays and enjoy your 2020 trips.

Not that it matters a whole lot, but I doubt this thread gets much traffic to warrant a for sale sign.

Speaking of Sportsmobile, the Austin, TX facility has a 2014 NV 200 for $14,000. 54,000 miles at 22-25 mpg. Minimalist design for 2. May have been a rental. If anyone is looking for a used NV, the Sportsmobile forum

Only the NV 200 appears to have been sold or removed from conversion trader. Sold vans are not tracked. Sportsmobile had a NV 2500 low top, no pop top, on their site that was listed as sold. Despite holding their value, there has to be a buyer who knows this. There is a lot of competition from much older Sprinters, Fords, Chevys and Dodges as well as from the current ProMaster. Too few Transits and too many new Sprinters...

Digital dual climate NVP unit in NV cargo?
radin2son replied to fenderfatstrat6's topic in Climate Control
Before you drive away in your high top (based on your intro post) NV, do you really need a high top? Aside from headroom, an NVP will give you more room than your Transit Connect, plus give you the second seat and ac you want. We have seen NVs with rooftop ac units but that isn -
ASD Dad, no issue with that given the size of your RV. This particular campground had no electric hookups and he used his generator to be able to vacuum in his tent camper. As long as the site works, I

Good therapy. Our NV has some back road dings but overall the silver paint has held up well with a lot less care. What I don

Hello from new nv 3500 4x4 owners in Arizona
radin2son replied to nv_explorers's topic in Welcome! Introduce Yourself!
Sportsmobile has an interesting video featuring their Classic (F350 cutaway) and Sprinter 4x4 traveling through the Mohave. A criticisms by the guest overlander in the Classic was lack of range. Need to have 600 miles and if roving the world diesel is best. I think we have pushed it to 380+. (Fill up range typically is 420+.) Fuel warning light comes on with about 3 gallons left if I recall this correctly. So we could/might have made it to 420 but where is the gas station. Since you are overlanding, do you have or are you going to add an auxiliary gas tank? There was one business who manufactured twin tanks for NVs but appears to have gone out of business. Colorado camper may know of others. -
