    Does that bench/couch seat fold up to become part of the bed platform? If so that's an INCREDIBLY slick idea and I'm going to have to try to reverse engineer it. Nice rig!

    ARB Roof rack for 2003 E-350 extended?

    I'be been looking into roof racks for my van and have seen ARB products that are affordable compared to many others. I just can't seem to find one made for an E-350. Does anyone have an ARB on their Ford van and if so, do you know the model number? Thanks in advance.

    Just wanted to say that I'm a big fan of your YouTube channel. Got me here, and inspired me to take up mountain biking as well. Your videos are super informative, and it was awesome to watch you review Gunnison and CB. I even saw my house in one of your videos. Keep up the awesome work...

    FOUND Vans For Sale!

    It seems pretty high to me. There are better deals to be had. I managed to buy a 5.4 V8 2003 extended E350, with a 4" lift kit and Quigley conversion, 126k miles, for $8k OTD. I got super lucky, but it goes to show you there are deals to be had.

    FOUND Vans For Sale!

    I tried to buy this van, and the seller was very difficult to deal with. Sometimes fast replies, other times days or weeks in between replies. Would agree to let me see it and test drive it, then not reply on the day of the meeting and would no-show. I get the distinct feeling it is not...

    To buy or not to buy

    I haven't found a 150k or lower mileage, 2008 ish model year for under $10k anywhere. There is that one 2007 Chevy 3500 Quigley with 84k on CL Baltimore for $9k but the 4 wheel drive is buggy. Where do you look for these vehicles Deshet? I generally look on Craigslist but have not found other...

    To buy or not to buy

    Forgive me if I was curt. I do appreciate your offer, the van looks cherry. It's just well beyond my budget. We have two 6.0 L Turbo Diesels at work and they're an absolute nightmare to start under 30 degrees. So I'm gun shy about diesels. As for the four wheel drive, it's going to be...

    To buy or not to buy

    Thanks for the offer, but it's A) about $3k out of my price range, and B) a diesel, which are notoriously difficult to start in the winter, here in Gunnison, CO, routinely top 5 coldest places in the US every year. It's also 23 years old, which is not something I want to deal with, either.

    To buy or not to buy

    They are 2011 buses from New England and Pennsylvania. I do hate rust but I have a metal/welding shop at my disposal. Good advice about the duallies in CO dirt roads. I plan on having the undercarriage glass blasted and coated in Por15 anti rust coat.

    To buy or not to buy

    I have been looking into a 4x4 van or bus for a long time, and have found two 2011 GMC Minotaur short school buses with Quigley conversions and about 140k miles apiece on Chevy 6L V8s. Standard rust situation for vehicles from New England, not great but not true cancerous rust yet. Seller is...

    2007 E-350 quigley questions

    KBB doesn't really help because it doesn't take into account the Quigley conversion.
