Why would you not buy this? http://www.ksl.com/index.php?nid=678&ad=35815234&cat=402&lpid=1

I know it was mentioned earlier in the thread, but why not an Excursion? It has most of the van pros, plus being factory 4x4, easier to work on, easier to find, cheaper, etc. The interior height will be a bit lower but the factory 4x4 is a big plus IMO. Parts and repairs while on the road will be a lot easier than a conversion. JM2C.

You're right, an excursion would save a lot of money and could be a great option. After checking out a few, I'm sold on a van.

I think we finally found the perfect RV.

^ That was excellent.

 

[Tonkaman]

Fantastic!

Probably pretty easy on the budget too

I think you should go look at that Freightliner/toyhauler combo. They really do drive better than you'd expect and you're not lacking for truck or trailer strength.

 

[sixstringsteve]

while a great rig, that freightliner would not make a good full-time home for me or my wife.

This is my vote!

Still waiting for the right 7.3 E350 to pop up. Chances are good we'll have to purchase out of state. If anyone knows someone with a 7.3L E350 that they'd be willing to sell, let 'em know I'm looking. 97-03 15 passenger EB is what we're looking for. Even searching craigslist nationwide it's been a struggle to find the right one.

If you really want to do your own 4x4 conversion you can't beat this and the rainbow paint in included.

Van found. Its a 7.3L e350. We are picking it up on sat. I don't want to say more for fear of jinxing it.

 

[sixstringsteve]

Great suggestions bart. I almost bid on the rainbow bright one.
