Jamie, that is exactly what I want (NEED!) and while it would be the perfect compliment to my Gasser, and I do have a spot in the garage for it, my life is slightly over budget as it is. I sent a link to the post to a buddy who I know wants a big trailie. Good luck with a sale.

I can't hate a guy with an avatar like that. (Am I judging a book by it's cover?) Color me shallow. Back in the day, I filled my high school algebra books with sketches of my '71 FJ40 in exactly that position.

I was hoping that we could get some legislation out of the Copenhagen Summitt that would provide for two soild months of awesome continuous snowfall from Dec thru the end of Jan tailing off a bit in Feb, but alas alac, there was no consensus on that issue. I'll bring it up at the next town hall...

Yet another example of why the world needs more Spencyg's. I'd hate to see what projects I'd have brought home by now if I had his talent and energy.

Thanks, Andre. I agree with Forerunner Rescue; the dashboard on the '06 is astonishingly...wrong! I'm just talking about the dashboard top (deck) not the face or layout. The top is made up of 9 peices that all look like they must have been leftovers from different projects because they do not...

I was able to pick out my own new company truck back in June '06, as long as it was off the Ford lot. I picked an '06 F-150 Super Crew Cab (full 4dr) , bright red with factory 20" wheels and a 6'3" bed. I just now changed employment to a different company (doing the same job) and my new boss/...

Where'o where can i see pics of your van? It's absolutely rockin!

I used to surf the yotavan and toyotavanpeople forums but they seemed to crash a lot (the sites, not the vans). Not so active but some good info nonetheless. Probably up and running now. Otherwise, look to JayFarsang for Mitsubishi Delica van info. He may even be able to give a good comparison...

Hi Liz. I did most of my research on www.astrosafarivans.com . They are a great group of people with multiple moderators, many experienced and active members, all willing to help out, and no drama or attitudes. Tell 'em T.Low sent you and they'll give you hard time for sure. 16' wheels and...

I am of the same thinking as you guys. So I went with the Astro build. It cruises nicely at 80 with the ATs on, a little looser with the MTs. While I like the interior room of the SMB, I simply didn't want to drive a full size van around in the tighter Washington mountain trails and downtown...

My new favorite thread. Luv those vans. :lurk: Brian, that's such a great picture with the old and the new.

Looks awesome Justin! Now can you please photoshop a welder into my garage?!! Thanks for the good words, guys. The van has been a blast, even more so than we ever thought it could be. A combination of factors have made it difficult to prioritize a complete interior build; we seem to haul lots...

Wow, thanks. With Christmas coming up, it sounds perfect!

Thanks, I was hoping you'd feel that I was joining in instead of horning in. Good looking setup, there. Glad to find someone else that understands. When I built the pop top van they told me I should sell the trailer then. Well, I have a free company truck to pull the very inexpensive trailer...

Line of the month right there, and a finalist for line of the year! It's exactly was I was thinking...just not quite exactly exactly.

This reminds me of going out to the bars with my buds when I was younger. Do you want to switch: you take the pop top, and I'll go for the stocker?:Wow1: As much as I like the big popper, the $82hundy sounds really good in this new world economy.

:D Let me check and see what my "bookmarks" say (there are two rival sites and I only go on the one); yes, thats the one. I think I have the same name and avatar there, too. Yeah, I've considered getting another Astro/Safari van, and I still may. But I'll probably get a GM or Ford 1/2 ton...

Thats high praise, especially considering its coming from a Toyota guy.
