Re: What did you do to your SMB today?
Had Bilstein shocks installed, original shocks had about 50K miles on an 04' EB 250 with no signs of leaking just thought they may need replacing. The van was a little too bouncey or porpoising and...

Re: Charging at home question
I thought I read in my manual that, if you are not going to drive the van for an extended period of time, you should plug it into your home 110v for 24 hrs once a month.
