beesigner Posted January 3, 2015 Hi All Very glad I came across this Forum yesterday evening after driving home our new NV :) We bought our 2014 NV Passenger NV3500 HD 3500 V6 SV Van yesterday at a year closing event . Couldn't resist the massive discount we got and think its a great platform for what we have in mind. We want to convert it into to a VW like "weekender" van. We will use it partially for business, toy hauler and family trips to the coast. In the long run looking into something between - Roadmaster NV6 - Sportsmobile NV and Euorvan Pop Up Camper. Will post progress pictures while we are developing. Best from NOLA and Happy New Year ! 1 Daydreamin520 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
radin2son Posted January 3, 2015 You will like your NV. No one has mentioned a "car top" tent, but I think it would be a great alternative to a travel trailer or pop top for a passenger NVs. (Provided the passenger model has the ladder rack mounts.) Main advantage to a pop top is no hole in the roof and it can come off when not needed. You could still modify the interior of your van. No standup room unfortunately... One thing I would add is the C. R. Laurence windows to the sliding door and window directly across from it for ventilation. Skeeter Beater makes screens for the front doors. Check out CVT at www.cascadiatents.com They are in Bend, Oregon. We considered buying an awning from them, but decided against using an awning.

radin2son Posted June 10, 2015 He put the van up for sale... Don't know if he sold it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
radin2son Posted June 10, 2015 (edited) It's under buying, leasing & ordering. Look for the NVP for sale. No indication it was sold but you could send him a message. Edited June 10, 2015 by radin2son Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
