TuranBros Posted June 26, 2017 Just purchased a brand new NV 3500 High-Top for our growing general contracting business. Our previous work vehicle was a 2006 GMC Sierra 2500HD with the Duramax diesel, so I'm probably going to miss the fuel economy (especially while towing). I do hope to see some decent MPG gains over the older models since this one comes with the 7-speed transmission though. We looked at several vans, including the Mercedes Sprinter and the Ford Transit during the buying process, but the 100,000 mile warranty and lower base pricing is what ultimately won us over. Plus we were able to negotiate over $5K off of the MSRP, and Nissan included the commercial business incentives that allowed us to outfit the rig at no additional cost with a nice partition, interior ladder rack, and two sets of Slick Locks. I'm glad there is an online community for owners to share info and tips, and as I get more familiar with the van I hope to be of some assistance. Peace & Blessings! 2 cabinetcrew and radin2son reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
radin2son Posted June 27, 2017 Welcome. Good to see more commercial users, who will definitely test the new engine and 7 speed... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
radin2son Posted June 27, 2017 (edited) Double post. This hasn't happened in awhile... Regarding your other post on a wrap. You should pm chris_commercialmanager. Before working in NC, he sold Sprinters in Chicago. He too likes NVs much better, to say nothing of selling a lot of them. The problem seems to be not enough to sell.
