I should have posted this months ago but this gathering was a blast and I hope there will be one this winter. I hope we can all get down there at all because right now it looks a bit grim . I wont go where I am not wanted so I will have to hear that the locals want the tourists back before I...

My van is the 2009 cargo. Its AWD and has power locks and window but does not even support a key fob. Would I have to get a whole new steering column to get cruise control?

I can tell you right now that your van is worth probably 20% more today than it was in may when you posted

Well that all seems pretty positive . Thank you for that

https://vantops.tufport.com/ These guys will install a top on a chevy express for 3200 bucks american. 6 foot 4 standing room. Even less for a ford Has to be the cheapest option but I dont think I have ever seen one.

What is this?

I would have them send you a check at this point. I wonder if they are going under. Are they a publicly traded company or private?

22k canadian is only 16.4k american. If it passes rust and mechanical inspection, buy it.

I am in the same boat, over 220k and I take it to mexico every winter. This year I was getting nervous so I ran compression. It nearly identical across all cylinders. Guess I will just keep this for another year.

I have two westafailas , one with an older shady boy and the other with a fiama. Both are great but I lean towards the fiama because its a bit easier to deploy. However a few years ago I put together an AWD express van for Baja and just went with old fashioned army style tent poles and sail...

This situation has got to be a nightmare for them. They have a product that many feel is beyond premium pricing and they really need to justify that with top notch service. Not being able to provide that is probably taking a toll in their reputation even though its not their fault

Why doesnt my van have an axle tag like that? 2009 awd 1500

I am sure that glider is very light , but remember that the 4l60e transmission in our vans is amazingly bad at towing. I would not tow anywhere near the recommended tow capacity , and I would not tow anything in mountains at all

These have more than doubled in price in the last five years but are still not too bad. https://www.amazon.com/CRL-11035S-WINDOW-PORTHOLE-13/dp/B002CXKG1Q/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=round+van+window&qid=1588022250&sr=8-1 I camped with a gal that had this one at the head of her bed and she...

This is good advice . I drove myself mental getting the best fuel economy 4x4 or AWD rig I could find. Went with the Chevy express AWD 1500. With a bit of hypermiling I was getting 20mpg and was quite chuffed. However once I put solar panels on and a kayak , bicycle , solar hot water heater...

Wow, thats a lot of money for a 50 watt solar panel and 42 amp hours of battery.

Where did you get the top?

I used to play racquetball with an old guy who had been a pro in the 80s. He used to beat me with a little tiny racket from the 70s

VERY COOL! I am assuming doing a 5.3 with AWD would not be much different?

I HATE my stock express seats but have not heard about any that are an easy bold on . Good luck
