Buying NV2/3500 High Roof #2

[Nissaron]

ADVICE APPRECIATED! 

Hello all! I'm not new to the forum but I RARELY post (plus I haven't had an NV in over a year now).  This forum has always been great to me though! LONG story short, I had a great 2013 NV2500 V6 high roof that I turned into a gorgeous camper (with an S-Load of help from my carpenter friend). Technically though she was still a work in progress, but I had such great plans for her... in August 2019 she was totaled. ROSIE! My dear sweet Rosie! I LOVED HER SO MUCH!!!!!

 

*ahem*

 

Anyway, I am searching for a new one! Time for camper 2.0!!! I want the same thing, but new enough that there is still a little bit of that fancy 5yr/100k warranty on it (at least a year). The only difference is this time I think I'm going with a V8.  

 

SOOOOOO..... any advice on buying one? My first purchase experience was not great but I also know a billion times more about these vans now. Any advice on any lil detail is appreciated. Hell, even purchase sites... I'm currently stalking....

carmax, cars, autotrader, cargurus dot com + craigs list.

 

I just missed a sweet one online (in Ohio... I'm in San diego, CA)... she was a "Cheyenne Red" 2018 *swoon* but I know anything other than white is nearly impossible. SILVER would be the holy grail! I like red more, but silver would attract less sun. 

 

ADVICE APPRECIATED!

conversiontrader.com had 2-3 hightop NVs for sale. Most if not all were V6s and completed diy projects. 

 

Worth a look. Plug in Nissan in the search link. Otherwise you will b scrolling through way too many Sprinters and ProMasters. 

 

Good luck with your search.

I'm actually a carpenter moving from pickup topper to NV cargo/overland conversion.  Can you tell more about your first experience and what would you change or now are looking for in 2nd, beside V8 and 4x4 (me).

A new post for a NV hightop V8 conversion on conversiontrader.

 

The 4x4 hightop listed for sale here also showed up for sale. 

 

Problem with conversiontrader is they don’t have sold info.
