Location:

Guntersville, Alabama, United States

Guntersville, Alabama, United States

This van is in great condition, was very well cared for under the GE Capital Lease program, van was leased to Tenn Department of Correction for Prisoner transport, interior had spray on foam insulation installed and covered by FRP board which makes van very easy to heat and cool.
Van has been set up for Electrical Service work with new Pratt & Leggett shelves on two side walls and 2 sets of Adrian Steel full extension drawers that are full width of van and another set of Adrian Steel small drawers. Ladder racks are Loads-Rite drop down style on both sides.

Van has 289K on body but engine and transmission has 102,000 on it. NADA value @ 102K is 9825.00 and @ 289K is 7255.00, I used 140 k as a reasonable valuation and NADA is 8875.00 on van alone. Shelves were bought new in 2013 @ 1300.00 cost and Adrian Steel items value is 3400.00 new. Making value of van with shelves and drawers and ladder rack 13,575.00.

Most all power tools are Makita brand purchased in last couple of years from industrial supply house. Hand tools are Rigid , Ideal, Klein, and other name brands. There is a full combo tool package of Makita Lithium Ion 18 volt cordless tools. Rigid Model 700 pipe threader, Kobalt 26 gallon compressor. ProQuip 8.3 Generator, all ladders are Werner, 6' & 12' step and 20' extension. There is 100' of polyurethane air hose and 400' of extension cord, numerous power strips. Ideal conduit benders.

Van has a basic supply of common breakers, light switches, single and 3 way, outlets and GFCI in all common colors, with switch and outlet covers to match colors, light bulbs, ballasts, approx 1400' of 12/2 wG Romex wire, several 250' rolls with some used off of in 14/2, 14/3, 10/2, 10/3. Numerous rolls of 500' single wire in various colors in 12ga, 14ga, thousands of various wire nuts, variety of exterior PVC fittings and exterior application boxes. Van comes with one temporary power pole with numerous outlets.

I am estimating 4000.00 in tools and 2500.00 in inventory supplies.

Logo was professionally designed and I own the web domain for theelectricaldr .net and .com

My health from a broken back and neck and 17 surgeries, prevented the business from actually getting started so from a business standpoint it has no business record or credit good or bad, and is completely debt free.

The individual totals I have listed come up to $20,075.00 and that does not include the logo cost which has numerous file types for different media advertising, print, vehicle, uniforms etc. and does not include cost of web domains.

This would be a great opportunity for someone wanting to start a business or maybe give a professional jump start to an existing small business or just to a existing company looking to expand their fleet. The cost also does not include the time and effort of stocking the van and organizing the supplies and tools. Their is absolutely nothing wrong with the van and gets about 15 mpg fully loaded around town, tires are good, and oil change was less than 500 miles ago. Auto check gives clean title check, no accidents and I have title in hand.

I can provide more details to serious bidders upon request.

Item is for sale on local market so I reserve the right to cancel this auction if item sells locally

Ford Transit customs ready to work for SEMA

Fri, 31 Oct 2014

Ford's booth at the SEMA Show this year looks to have two, big themes. The Blue Oval is bringing over a dozen takes on the 2015 Mustang to the event, and it's now also announcing five customized versions on the 2015 Transit to join the modded pony cars. Each of the vans shows off a different use for the spacious commercial vehicle, from plush luxury to offroad ruggedness.
You probably don't think of the Transit as hitting the trails, but that's just what the take on the design from the Vegas Off-Road Experience (pictured above) is for. The company gives people the opportunity to drive a desert race truck, and this custom is meant to drive them to events. It should be able to take on the terrain a little better with off-road wheels and tires and fender flares, but inside passengers get serious luxury thanks to a 60-inch LED TV and video game systems.
Alternatively the blazing red Designed Travel Transit (right) is all about long road trips. The interior features four captain's chairs with heating, cooling and massage functions, and there's a 4K 50-inch TV to watch. For a touch of added class, the floor is made from hickory.

Ford tumbles to second worst in Consumer Reports reliability survey, list dominated by Japanese [w/video]

Mon, 29 Oct 2012

It's no secret that MyFord Touch has had its share of problems since being introduced, but the most recent reliability survey from Consumer Reports shows just how much this infotainment system has affected Ford. Just two years ago, the automaker was in the top 10 for the institute's reliability rankings, but since then, it has tumbled to the second-lowest rung just above dead-last Jaguar. In addition to MyFord Touch, CR also attributes a handful of new products that have had issues right out of the gate.
Compiled from 1.2 million subscriber surveys, this year's auto reliability survey heavily favors Japanese automakers, with eight of the 10 spots hailing from Japan. Toyota brands grabbed the top three spots (Scion, Toyota and Lexus - in that order) with Mazda, Subaru, Honda and Acura filling the next four spots. The only non-Asian automaker cracking the top 10 was Audi at number eight.
Audi climbed a total of 18 spots from last year, and Cadillac and GMC round out this year's top gainers breaking into the top 15. Helping Cadillac's upward movement, the CTS Coupe was named the most reliable domestic car. Lincoln, Volvo and Chrysler join Ford on this year's biggest loser list.

Weekly Recap: Jaguar takes a leap with price cut, new strategy

Sat, Sep 5 2015

Jaguar was one of the famous automotive props and plotlines in the now-iconic drama Mad Men. There's a scene where the show's protagonist, Don Draper, deftly undercuts an influential Jaguar dealer by indicating that get-me-in-the-door local radio spots would be an effective way to sell cars like the slinky E-Type. The British executives think this is folly – Draper knows they will – and his advertising strategy wins out over the dealer's approach to move the metal. Jaguar's not doing that, but half a century later in the real world the company is launching plans to make its cars more attainable to new and younger customers like Millenials. These aren't coupons, but this is a leap for Jaguar, which has long banked on sexy styling and its rich motorsports history to overshadow its past mechanical flaws. Put simply, Jaguar is addressing the reasons why people, especially the younger set, don't buy its cars. The 2017 XE will start at $35,895 when it launches next spring – which makes it an attractive buy for a successful, relatively young person. When it's time to move up, the redesigned XF will be more attainable, coming in at $52,895, which is $5,275 less than the 2015 model. The flagship XJ sedan and the enthusiast-oriented F-Type sports car will also get thousands of dollars worth of added standard features, and Jag is actively pitching them as a better value than their competitors. "The Jaguar brand is on the eve of a major transformation that will see it dramatically increase its presence in the United States luxury marketplace with an expanded lineup, pricing focused on the core of the luxury market, and an all-new ownership package with best-in-class coverage," Joe Eberhardt, CEO of Jaguar Land Rover North America, said in a statement. The brand's quality and reliability dings have also lurked in the back of buyers' minds for decades, though that's an outdated notion. Jaguar placed third in J.D. Power's Initial Quality Study in June and was the top-ranked luxury brand in J.D. Power's Customer Service Index in March. Not content, the company is rolling out an enhanced program called Jaguar EliteCare that launches on 2016 models. It offers a five-year, 60,000-mile limited warranty, the longest among its competitors, with free scheduled maintenance during that period. The plan also covers roadside assistance and connectivity features.
