If he ever has any questions have him PM me.

I'd be happy to fill him in on the blanks. It's a job that's definitely not what most people think it is.

First, the van was as advertised and is a great machine. However, the drive to the Smokey Mountains highlighted some weaknesses in the van, at least in my mind.

Surprisingly cramped driving position.
Field of view is very limited.
Clumsy on mountain roads.

That and I was planning on driving it at least three days a week. It is a mastodon in a parking lot.

Anyway, no harm done. It sold in two days to a nice couple. I found a used FJ Cruiser for my daughter, I got my F-150 back and my son and I settled on a very well sorted slide in camper that is very low profile.
