FS: 2006 Chevy with SMB PH, 35K miles, WI, $17,500

NRL: Great idea. So the fact that the window is only 2" or so away from the styrafoam doesn't hurt the performance? And your unit only has one tube, no input tube? If you get a chance to post a...

Very funny.

I hear ya on hoisting the canoes on top of the SMB. It's a pain, however, I still do it with some light kevlar kayaks.

For other boats, I use a standard utility trailer with Yakima...

Gerrym51: Sportsmobile in IND did put a PH on my Chevy 4.3L 1500, but that's all I had done with it. So that is a posibility if you want a DIY camper that doubles as an everyday van. I average 17.5...

I wanted a daily driver with few camper options, more or less, too. I looked at used VW Weekenders, but they seemed way over priced, under powered and unreliable. There's just a group of people out...

LoneStarJR: That's Westfalia AC is an interesting option. I'm not sure how well that would cool down the PH. I would think the cab would be very cool, the back of the van would be cool, and the...

Dave: I thought about the "ice box" ACs (like Swampy), but I did not hear that many good things about them for humid environments. They work well dry climates, but not up north in the humidity.
