Please provide the dealer and salesperson that assisted you "weighing over a dozen 2014s & 2015s including diesels just a weekend ago". I call HORSESXXT!!! But if it's true, I will sincerely apologize... What's the name & number??? COME ON!

Thank you very much! :)

I see you.

You are over the top... HATER! You didn't read this post at all. I never said a word about my vans... no bragging about my vans... or being finished... or walking on water... raw vans, as on the lot, at the dealer. What anyone puts in them will not change this post whatsoever... Nor how much...

Now the floor is completely done... along with the lower side panels... fully insulated too. Tomorrow we start on the steel bins/supports for personal gear and supporting the mattress. Our carrier requires a bulkhead for driver protection so that comes after the bins/supports.

That's what is on the door jam AND the shipping weight on the invoice to the dealer... maybe you want to call my saleman a liar too? He confirmed the numbers not even an hour ago. Please go back and reread my post... I SAID EMPTY WEIGHT ON BOTH!!! Pretty soon you will be wanting to weight all...

OK, because my good friends @ Ziegler in Plainwell, Michigan have both Promasters AND Transits by the dozens, we compared the two head to head. Here are the results: the Ecoboost T350 Jumbo SRW weighed 5,352 lbs. which with a 9,500 GVW results in an empty carrying capacity of 4,148 lbs. The...

Seriously? The low roof, mid roof, high roof in long OR extended all have the same cargo weight capacity???? They all weigh differently empty for certain. What cartoon did this come from???

If you must have a roof mounted air conditioner, it should be as close to the front as reasonably possible. If you've ever seen wind tunnel smoke trails over a vehicle, the windshield clearly redirects the airflow primarily over the vehicle, increasing air pressure over the top of a tall van...

We based our fleet on the Promaster because it is 500 lbs. lighter empty, can carry more payload, and is about 9" shorter (height), which all results in better MPG. The Promaster 3500 extended is (our opinion) the smallest big van that can realistically carry 3 skids. The load floor is much...

Hello everyone...

Yes. I've seen it before.

So here is an up close view of a completed floor... the E-track is perfectly flush with the plywood and is positioned over factory channels in the floor so debris can easily be blown out from the E-track so it's always easy to attach straps and bars. They are about 36" apart.

Yes, Satin Polyurethane. Having tried gloss, semi-gloss, and satin we decided the satin looks WAY better over time. I should mention that it is very important to fully coat all sides and edges on the door panels. Otherwise water eventually gets under the polyurethane and makes an ugly dark...

I don't think I could trim out the interior with red oak sheets after that?

Here is the beginning of the roof insulation... 1" foam sheet formed and the glued between the steel roof supports, held by pressure until it drys. The steel supports will be spray foamed inside and then 1-1/2" foam sheet will run lengthwise to form 2-1/2" thick overall insulation in the roof...

You are getting ahead of me a bit... actually I use fiberglass in the irregular spaces to fill holes, cavities, lumps & bumps... I use spray foam where I can't reasonably get the fiberglass into... I use sheet foam insulation exclusively on the roof... glued in with spray insulation. I do not...

Maybe these pictures will illustrate the super clean machine screw attachment used for both the E-track and plywood flooring... perfectly flush!

I drill and tap the holes myself which holds the E-track AND plywood in place and at the proper depth until I get under the van to install fender washers and lock nuts. These machine screws hold the plywood in place as well. There is a thick factory undercoat on Promasters that would likely...

DEFINATELY! It's all about function AND driver comfort AND cargo carrying capacity AND high efficiency AND company image/professionalism. The blend I chose is not for everyone. It s not cheap. I would only upgrade a new van this extensively so the cost can be spread over the longest period of...
