Am I the only one appalled by the $168,000 price tag? Maybe it's because I live in the midwest but that's insane.

The plumbing is done

Moving this back to current. Plumbing is finished. Reefer is upgraded. Removed the shore power water heater since we never used it (but can throw it in). Extra space was more important. Have also...

My recommendation would be to approach a credit union. My experience has been they are far more likely to think slightly out of the box. I had it professionally appraised a year or two ago, prior to...

Upgrade

This van remains for sale.

Meanwhile, I am upgrading the original Norcold reefer (which is good by the way) with a Dometic CRX-65. It's even more energy efficient. Has anyone installed one of...

My nearly 20 year experience

You can find a list of the upgrades I've made to my 99 7.3 Voyager top SMB in the classified section (I'm just too lazy to re-enter it here). I didn't know they had an "added insulation" option or...

Point taken

I tend to forget you guys since for me it's always been the 4x4 concept. It's all about the traction in snow and such.

Aplogies in advance

I’m going to pontificate a bit. Hell, it’s my thread I can do what I want.

What we have on this forum is a somewhat schizophrenic population. There are those who want an absolutely go-anywhere...

I had no idea a 12vdc only Starcool even existed. This is the ac/dc version.

Oddly enough, it came outfitted with a propane generator but I took it out. They're pretty much a noisemaker in the...

Thanks all - $65,000

I genuinely appreciate your honesty and evaluations. It will be heard to believe, but you did bring some reality to my thinking. At the same time, I (very respectfully) disagree with you. Hopefully...

Price estimate

Well, if the consensus turns out to be mid to high 40s, or even 50s, it looks like I'll be keeping the van.

I can't recall the name of the company; a boat supply place out of Canada. It's not actually a window; it's the foredeck hatch from a large sailboat. Opens, closes, does all that stuff.

Sorry about that, bud. You caught me in the middle of a fairly tedious entry process. Hope you found the answer. I just don't know. And I certainly don't know as much as many of you guys on the forum.
