One of the best vans I ever had was a Ford passenger van with a full set of windows like that. The all had the hinges on them to allow for them to pop open from the bottom. The airflow that allowed for would evacuate the heat better than any roof vent ever can. I miss that van still today.

nice van, i prefer the looks of the Ford -vs- GM. ppl say it is more solidly built to.

BUTT, the rear end of an extended Ford looks plain silly, so i went with another GM.


EDIT** opps sorry Rico for appearing to blast your van, i didn't see your reply. :icon_razz:

You really need to get away from the black.

It's just too dark.

It gives off dark, sinister vibes.

All the venting for rear air and heat is in the ceiling.
I leave it all. The head liner alone makes fir good insulation in the winter.

Don clamp a dryer exhaust hose on the main air flow plumbing. Run to drivers seat for double cooling.

Did this on my old dodge pass van. Nice in summer

That is a very nice van, you gonna do a full wrap?

Thinking at the very least some of that hole punched vinyls of it will look more like a cargo from the outside.

Getting quotes now on lettering.

Love it!! I might look at option of doing something like that. But clearer looking than dryer duct.

Awesome idea!

Hmm. My 06 is also a window van.

Just got a 2011 E250 and am really starting to like it. Totally different than a Dodge. Freaking sun in the morning is a bitch, but whatever. Sounds like an oil can when you hit bumps. Don't know what that's about but it's a nice van.

I'm sorry. But window vans look so... "I'm just starting out and bought this at a church auction"

Having enough problems fitting everything in and having crammed shelves and tons of things hanging from and attached to the walls.
How do you guys deal with the storage if you have all these windows?

I have one too love the the ceiling seat belts for hanging tools. Dont ever try to put a direct drive in a passenger van they have some safety switch that shuts them off when they are running idle for long periods of time. Seems you can always get them cheaper too.

Which Im sure is why the largest carpet cleaning company in the country uses them...


They use them because they are cheaper for insurance and when you have a thousand of those vans running, its good to save a few bucks.

You guys are high if you think a window van look less professional.. that van looks better than most O/O vans.. How many years did you run with that hoopty Dave?
