Marv,
When I started looking for a van I didn't know what I was looking for. I =
thought about the options, size, i.e., 1/2 ton or 3/4 ton, full size, =
mini. I found for the money a slightly used 3/4 ton full size was the =
answer for me. I have it fitted with racks and shelves to organize the =
gear. It is easy to securely strap the tanks in, doubles and stages. I =
put roof racks on it to haul my boat to access some of the Florida =
caves. Just over a year now and no complaints. Well on second thought, =
the gas mileage could be better. You can't have it all.
L8R,
Ken
