Portland, Oregon, United States

If you would like to see additional pictures or look at the van in person, please contact me by phone at 541-740-4262.

Multi-purpose van can be used for road trips with the sleeping platform or up to 5 passengers with space for additional gear.

I have built an L-shaped sleeping platform with space for gear underneath - it is great for going on extended road trips.

Since I put in the sleeping platform right when I purchased this van, the bench seat was removed and has been stored in a dry and clean location so it is still in like new condition.

If you are not interested in the sleeping platform, I can easily remove it and put the bench seat back in.

Mostly highway miles as I used it for traveling long distances. It has always been very reliable, but I live in the city now and don't need such a large vehicle any more.

ALL repair records and routine maintenance paperwork through first and second owner available.

I have added window tinting for privacy and there are rain guards so you can have the windows open slightly when it's raining and not have water come in.

Hitch with electrical hookup option for pulling a trailer.

Rear tires are 1 year old with not many miles and are still under warranty.

Tire chains included if you want them, but this van does GREAT in snow.

Original Owner's Manual included.

Additional Information:

This is the perfect adventure camper van!

I have used this van to camp out of and built a solid platform which provides space for sleeping while also having lots of space for gear. I am willing to sell it with the custom platform or without it. It has tinted windows and is white in color which results in it staying cool even in warm temperatures. I put window rain protectors over the front two windows so they can be left open in a downpour and still keep the front seats dry.

* I also have the original van bench seat (not pictured but will be included) which has hardly been used due to having the platform in it. It can be installed or taken out in seconds which makes this van very versatile.

This van handles amazingly in all weather conditions as it is all wheel drive (same as four wheel drive) and will come with chains (even though I have rarely needed chains because it does so well in snow). There is a factory rack to which you can mount a Yakima rack or similar rack system (Thule, etc.).

I bought this van in 2005 from Randy Jones Chevrolet in Corvallis OR with 94,128 miles. It had one previous owner before me who did all their routine service at the same place and at the recommended intervals (all of those records can be printed out and reflect all routine maintenance that occurred).

I have also kept up with routine maintenance at the recommended intervals. I have a file with everything I have done to the van over the last 8 years. Since I bought it, (excluding normal maintenance) I have only had to replace the power steering pump 3 years ago and 6 months ago I had a new U Joint and shocks on the front.

Currently the van has 219,000 miles on it. Most of those miles I put on it are highway miles since I drove many times between Oregon and Wisconsin along with traveling to explore various areas of the US (hence the perfect camper van). Not to mention I bike commuted to work and to run errands more often than driving the van short distances. I put new tires on the back 1 year ago. I also put a new AM/FM/CD radio in it. I know of several people with the same van that have gotten well over 300,000 miles on theirs.

I have since moved to the city and don't travel / camp nearly as much as I used to, so I got a smaller car to match my new lifestyle. I hope this van can go to a good home of someone who can enjoy it and get the most out of its awesome features! It truly is the ultimate road trip / camper van!

Chevy confirms Corvette Stingray Convertible for Geneva

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

Want proof that General Motors has increased global ambitions for its 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray? It's staging the world premiere of the model's convertible variant at the Geneva Motor Show early next month.
As previously rumored, the droptop rendered above will debut at the Swiss show, making its first appearance anywhere on March 5. According to Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet, the location makes sense because Corvette "...is an icon that has long been recognized and admired even in countries where it's never officially been offered."
While neither Chevrolet nor the Corvette has a major sales presence in Switzerland, the Bowtie's European headquarters is located in Zurich (about three hours to the northeast of Geneva) and GM has made it clear that it wants to build the Chevrolet brand up across Europe.

GM cutting production at two plants

Thu, Feb 26 2015

General Motors is continuing to adjust to excess supply of some of its brands' models. To get production more in line with the vehicles' actual demand, the automotive giant is idling two of its factories in North America in the coming months. The Orion Assembly plant is going to be down from March 9-13, according to an anonymous plant worker and another insider speaking to Automotive News. The factory builds the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano, but there are plenty of both models sitting on dealer lots, including 216 days worth of Sonics, according to AN. The factory already had two idle periods announced to reduce the excess. In addition, downtime is scheduled at GM's "Flex" line at the Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, plant from April 13-17. This affects supply of the Chevrolet Camaro, Impala, Buick Regal and Cadillac XTS. Among them, the automotive giant has the largest supply of Regals ready for dealers with 213 days worth of them, according to AN. The future for the whole Oshawa factory is cloudy in general, though. There are rumors that it could close entirely in the future because the Camaro is leaving and the Regal and XTS might not last much longer than 2017. The Canadian government and the labor union there intend to put up a fight, though.
