It's time to sell our beloved 1997 Eurovan camper.
She's in good shape and she's got a lot of life left in her, but we just don't use her enough.

The camper is in great shape mechanically, but is only in fair shape cosmetically.

We've got a video up here:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uU6KSVIDOlo

We've also got a huge photo album up here:  http://imgur.com/a/hUOAc

Below is everything we know that's wrong with the van.
We've tried to take pictures or video of all the described issues.
  • Small rust spot on driver's side door sill
  • Driver's side power mirror works, but is sluggish
  • The exterior vent covers and AC adapter cover is missing and/or damaged
  • There are dents in the rear door from a small fender bender
  • The hyrdraulic arms for the pop top are worn, and won't hold the popup erect (we are including a tennis racket that does the job well)
  • The inside cover of the sliding door is damaged and peeling off
  • There's a small tear in the misquito netting of one of the poptop windows
  • The poptop canvas is a bit moldy
  • The deep cycle camper battery needs to be replaced (not the primary vehicle battery)
  • The gear selector cover is cracking up
  • The driver's side rear light / blinker assembly is cracked (but works fine)
  • Two of the tires are pretty old, but probably will last you for a bit
Other than these issues, the camper is in good shape.
If you are at all familiar with Volkswagen Eurovan campers, then you know that they often go for $20,000 or more.
This is a chance to grab one for a lot less because of some small easily serviceable issues.

That being said, this is a used 16 year old vehicle.
We'd be happy to show it to you in person, if you are nearby.
We are also happy to answer any questions you have.

The following is included with the sale:
  • Tennis racket (aka auxillary popup stand)
  • Air conditioner and AC bench to hang off passenger window
  • Oil filter and air filter
  • Tempurpedic mattress cover
  • Various tarps
  • Eurovan camper manual

Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]

Fri, 14 Dec 2012

Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.

VW looking to MAN up, ditch Mercedes van deal

Wed, 16 Jan 2013

Unlike the US, the commercial truck market throughout the rest of the world is chocked full of competitors from many different automakers. Since 2006, Volkswagen has had a fullsize van called the Crafter that was a result of a partnership with Daimler AG and based on the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. This partnership is supposed to last through 2016, but Reuters is reporting that VW might be looking to end its relationship with Daimler and create its own van in cooperation with German truck and bus maker MAN.
The article says that VW AG has more than a 75-percent stake in MAN, which would essentially be keeping the new commercial vehicle in-house. Even if VW bolts, Daimler still has a deal worked out in the commercial truck industry between its subsidiary Mitsubishi Fuso and Renault-Nissan to supply the other with different trucks.

Volkswagen e-Co-Motion concept poised for delivery to Geneva

Sat, 02 Mar 2013

With Nissan getting ready to launch the e-NV200, it appears Volkswagen is looking to go after the same zero-emission commercial vehicle market with the all-electric 2013 e-Co-Motion Concept. Debuting next week at the Geneva Motor Show, the e-Co-Motion Concept might be small in size, but VW says it has cargo and payload capacities that should be perfect for small businesses.
Measuring 179 inches long, 75 inches wide and 77 inches tall, the e-Co-Motion Concept has about the same footprint as the current Golf, and it has a cargo capacity of 162 cubic feet and a maximum payload of more than 1,700 pounds. There isn't too much information on the e-Co-Motion just yet - such as what electric components and platform are used - but the press release posted below states while the concept is shown as a cargo van, future body styles could include a passenger wagon or a refrigerated box van.
