This car is no longer for sale the link says...

Maybe an inexpensive MP3 player instead of Cds. You can store more content on a mp3 than a cd. It might be easier in the long run than fighting with the dealer on this.

That is totally awesome! Now you need custom exterior paint. I have provided a link for some ideas.   :)

In case no one has seen the Promaster extended passenger seat here is a link to a picture. Yes, that is a great idea.

I would first install a bulkhead for safety - Adrian Steel is a good source.

 

The floor will need to be replaced every few years. I'd use the best exterior grade plywood I could find and secure it to the floor with Teks wood to metal self tapping screws (Home Depot).

 

I'd also want an in-floor track system such as VersaTie (macscustomtiedowns.com) or UniTrax (coterie downs.com) or E-Track (conversioncomponents.com/cargo-control-e-track/ ). Recessed is worth the extra effort.

 

You're going to love your new van!

Couple of good links there! Thanks.  :worship:

Just kidding of course!  :reading:

Glad to heat the 4.0 is up to the task. 

My wife has a Toyota FJ and oil change intervals are 10,000 miles with synthetic 0w-20. Holy crap!

This may not directly address your pricing questions but this  is a really good read about the car salesman business. I found it a real eye opener....

http://calcarcover.com/ has a lot of stuff for cleaning and shining. Seat covers. Car covers.

Thanks for the link. I always enjoy seeing how people outfit vans for their personal use. Welcome to the site!

Congrats! I bet the black looks really nice.

If anyone is looking for a partition this might be a good candidate.

With six children the van will be put to good use!  :)

Welcome! Don't forget some pics...... :shift:

I found this video on youtube. He is installing a third man seat in a Ford van. Some of the installation ideas could possibly work on NV's. I thought it was a good watch.

Google vehicle speed limiter and you'll see some of the options available to you. Here's one of them from such a search......http://www.bannariinfotech.com/shield.htm

Well, one option would be to look at a Ford E-series cargo van. I know they have an optional air bag off switch. I realize this is the wrong forum to say that..lol. You could bolt one of these between the front seats...http://www.discountvantruck.com/vanjumpseat/vancenterseat.htm  and get him away from the bags.

After consulting a 13 NV sales brochure, no air bag cut off switch is listed. The seat mounted side airbag, at least for 13, is optional as is the roof mounted airbag. I guess i would look for an NV without the optional bags and go from there.

"The bottom of my shorts catches the knob & jerks it off."  :worship:  I seriously need to grow up!

I can't speak about Coverking NV seat covers but the Ck saddle blanket seat covers I've purchased over the years for my Ford work trucks begin to pull apart at the seams after only a year. My Frontier is using a Ck seat cover from a Ranger and that one is staring to pull apart as well. Just my 2 cents... :)

I've never minded the Nissan orange lights. Pontiac used to use red in the instrument panels years ago. That was kinda cool too. I've never heard about Titan guys changing the color. Interesting.

I always wanted a Ford Crewvan. I thought it was a great combination of utility and passenger seating. Great mod axulsuv!

Lol...I hope members don't get confused by our usernames.

I stopped by a Commercial Nissan dealer today and looked at an NV 1500 and the new little one NV-200. I could use the 200 for my small drywall business. I think I'll lurk here for awhile and see what goes on with these things. See ya around.....
