Beware...bolt is comming down on conditions of your van....i am playing hell with them now over my old van....no more a/c units like i had..( wich i took out before the kid picked it up) .....generator box is a no no...they brought it in to re letter it and hit my driver with a list of stuff to fix...what do they want from us.. geees...so i guess if you cant afford a nice roof top a/c.. your supposed to sweat it out for days as they look for a load for yah...that van is not in bad condition compared to some others i have seen..... :confused::confused::confused:
