Best product out there, no drill..... Sold countless amounts in chicago on my Sprinters and held up to the salt of winter without ever having a problem. Sell them all the time on the NV's.

I would not lose confidence either. I've seen a problem here or there ever so rarely. The worst I've seen in a year here is a faulty oxygen sensor that left a new customer stranded on an NV200, he was not happy but we fixed him up FAST and got him back on the road immediately. It's simply inevitable with so many parts on such a complex piece of equipment that a part may fail on a vehicle here or there.......or worse yet you could be hit with recall like so many other brands have had in recent years. This is definitely the most reliable vehicle in the lineup..... I'm glad to see you had a good experience at the dealership. We try very hard to fix up our clients right the first time.

The cloth is incredibly resiliant. It's what they use in the plane jane model that I sell to all of my hotel clients. Trust me those vehicles see waaaaay more abuse than family use. btw Joey. Just left you a voicemail. Feel free to call Christopher

The titan does not run on the same line. I was able to get a customer a last minute order of four black NV2500 Techs in 4-6 weeks from date of order by modifying existing orders. I however have am a larger dealership and have a large amount of existing orders to do so. I'm showing a silver 2016 2500sv tec in stock in my network of 150 stores we own fyi.

We have never seen, nor heard of that before. Please keep us all updated.

I missed t day wishes......was on vacation. Happy belated T day!

ouch @ 350 a year.....cheaper than resulting ticket though.

I haven't read the article and don't know what model sprinter your talking about but that mpg figure on the sprinter would be well low of what any of my customers got. Even the 3500 dually was 20mpg. It's just not worth the hassle though for diesel. In Chicago I had a printed list of gas stations brands in Illinois that customers "should" go to and "should not" go to. Bad diesel is prolific in the midwest, specifically Illinois. Was so bad in the country, and among other issues, Mercedes stopped importing diesels into the country a few years back for all vehicles but the sprinter. I could make a very very strong argument for a diesel 10 years ago for almost any van buyer but now it's a real hard argument all buyers, with possibly the exception of a fed ex vehicle or long distance courier. I would not buy diesel right now, but that's just me. This is why I do not think we see a Cummins NV. But who knows.

I had my hands on the new titan last week. I was never impressed with the picture of the van (edit: silly me, vans on the brain...TRUCK) and had low expectations from a looks standpoint. I must say, in person it looks very nice. Interior was beautiful. Didn't even sound like a diesel. We have had decent interest in it to date. We will see how it pans out!

nissan parts dept should have what you need, won't be cheap though. Won't imagine you'll be doing much, as andy george suggests though.

i will tell you that some inline fans can make some noise. However, what you suggest seems feasible. Only thing I will say.....and this is coming from tinkerer who can't leave his hands off of anything, and genuinely thinks I can always come up with a better design..... When the overwhelming majority of people do things a certain way there is probably a reason for it. In this case I couldn't say what that reason is but I'd sure bet there is one. Being this requires permanent modification I personally would find another project to re engineer.

Drive should be very similar to your titan so you should feel right at home! Welcome!

Your OBD port is fed from power from several locations. Most likely culprit is in your IPDM. Open that up and check fuses, if you have already eliminated the main fuse panel in the engine bay.

how bizarre, care to explain? I'm being serious....(not the meds part)

I'm beginning to think Rochester is not for real.

You will have to get creative my friend. I second the front looking sweet!!

Good morning!! The sonar off switch has always been there. As for the front sonar I could not say, have not seen a 2016, but I have seen it listed on documents. That is odd.

I am however sorry you feel duped by your salesperson, that would not be a feel good for me either.

Where do you live that you are so concerned about rust? An area that uses salt and or literally on the ocean?? If you're in a salt area there is literally nothing you can do. Rust is going to happen and it's only a matter of when. If you get a door ding and are missing a speck of paint that can be enough for the cancer to start. The best thing you can do, is try to keep it clean, which means spraying it down after a snow. For the undercarriage, there is very very little you can do, try to keep it clean as well. There is a lot of snake oil out there, don't buy it. Wheels, I would always rub down with motor oil when clean and would have positive results. If you are in a salt area and drive winters for the next 5 years your going to be rusty on the underside, nothing you can do my friend.

John, I get better than that with my demo's as well. I'm a bit confused on who you would sue, I to advise you to talk to the GM. If someone asks me about gas mileage my standard response is 7-20mpg. It all depends on what your using it for and how you drive. Unloaded on my v6 demo I get waaaay better than 11. However I drive it very easy in town and on the highway. The bottom line is your driving a full framed box, have you seen the size of the components under the vehicle? Your dependability and lack of unplanned visits to the dealership (lost income sitting there waiting if your using this for work) will more than make up for any gas deficit you'd have vs a diesel in a competitor product. And FYI, fords ecoboost engine has been a MPG flop. and dodge, well I won't go there. You are driving the lowest cost of ownership van on the market.

You and I are on the same boat. I always do my own wrenching!!

You know I am happy you finally got into it after what you went through, sorry that it went the direction I thought it would. Make sure to keep us updated of pics and your travels!!! and, if your ever rolling through the area I am right off the highway, you better stop in and say hi! Go to lunch for BBQ and Fried pickles :) Christopher You have my #, you need a question answered in a pinch text or call.

I miss driving the west coast!! Welcome sir and congrats!!

I've never seen an off the shelf kit. You can however find a ton of air bases, shouldn't be very hard for you to work something up. Another source of info would be to google "van upfitter". See who comes up in your area and give a call. They should be a wealth of knowledge.
