When i bought my van i took it to 2 shops to check the van out they both told me the van was in good condition. Than I start having all types of issues, so I'm just hanging on to it till I can make a purchase that won't be this type of van anymore. I'm also thinking of a new car like the transit or an used 07+ sprinter. My only concern with the transit is the limited space to carry equipment for dehus and fans, but for everyday carpet n tile, should do the job.
