Keep some window cleaner in your van. The frost and steam really builds up on the windshield and after it thaws leaves a residue that is a pain to see thru when the sun hits it. We have to clean ours...

Re: Name TBD: AWD Express / CCV Poptop

Impressive work for sure. We have a Chevy 1500 AWD as well. Minimal build. We always get right around 17.5 mpg.

Re: Chevy or Ford home build?

I'm in the slow process of a simple build on my Express 1500 AWD. It's a great rig. 17-18 mpg all the time. The AWD is really great for winter driving here in Wyoming, way better than my 4x4 F-250...

Re: Bed Rug Anyone?

I've got one in my pickup. It's a quality product. The fit is perfect and I really like the way the foam backing matches the ribs on the floor. Easy to clean and very comfortable.
