How do you roll????

Here is my ghetto version. It is a temporary thing until I have a chance to
mount my rack for the camper shell.

Mooch,

It's been some time since you got your new ride - how about an in depth report on the likes and dislikes?

So far, my only complaint is that the local quick stop oil changer will charge me $100.00 just to remove the tub underneath the engine just so they can get to it - and then charge me the reg fee for the oil change itself  Lucky for me, I happen to know a PHENOM Volkswagon tech that can do it for me for half the price I will eventually learn how to do it myself.

Other than that, I'm very happy with it and it really compliments my lifestyle...my car camping trips will triple - especially now that I finally installed my roof racks. Pics to follow...

ConGrats Mooch!!!!

 Sweet Ride....

before and after.  Regrettable, but had to trade the FJ in to save $$$.

Nice van mooch!  I had a 2003 myself-- without the swanky pop top. LOVED it. Drove it to AZ, down into mex, returned and sold it to a friend of mine in AZ...where it still lives a happy normal life.

Get yourself a toolbox/step stool...trust me. don't bother putting tools in it, put things like chain lube, leader material, etc...all that junk that we forget

Jedmo....I hope I never piss you off

Very funny Mooch. I better change that red flag suppose to be. Man,
I am inviting trouble for myself. Thanks for noticing.

What is the MPG? 

EPA Mileage: 17 city, 20 highway

Wow dude, that is surprisingly poor mpg!
Sorry bro, somebody's gotta bust your bubble.      Nice VAN! Muwaahaahaahahahahaha!

My rig.  I customized an EXTEND-A-TRUCK with lights and home made vinyl trailer bunks.  I load and go in less then 5 minutes.  I do a lot of quick local fishing trips and this setup allows me to get to my fishing spots fast and easy.

Colt, that's a trick Extender. Quick & easy is the way to go.

Mooch, nice lookin' Euro man-van. What year is that?
They've come a long way from the ol' '65 camper bus I drove about 20 years ago. I sold it to finance my first overseas travel:  semi-backpacking around Southeast Asia. I carried a lot of stuff in & on it, but never a kayak, so I won't post a pic here!
