This is pretty awesome…we got a new touring van in Phoenix. Susan had been looking for one for a while, and I located this gem in Arizona from a Craigslist search. It was the long and tall model and had a bench seat in it that folds into a bed…sold! The other kicker was we were already planning to be on tour in Arizona just a few weeks later when we found it. Kismet? Probably.
I allows for more space, physical and mental, because we’ve been traveling with the dogs in a Honda Element for two years. The Element was great, though…but when we camped out in Roswell last week Susan slept on the bench seat bed and I fit a whole Queen sized air mattress in the back. An SUV just won’t allow for that kind of luxury!
Currently I am super excited about the glove box that I can stick my whole arm into…think of the things I could store in there. I could pack for a whole week by just using the glove box!

Hey Jana,
Dig the new van. I want to tour with you guys/gals one day. Or at least meet up on the road. Very jealous of the tour van.. I have mine currently disguised as a 1999 Toyota Camry… but it gets great mileage.
Be good.. but not so good you are boring.

Thanks, Matt! Hop aboard. 🙂 The cool thing about this one is the gas mileage. It gets like 22 – 26. If you ever want a test drive meet us at Exit 156. Or somewhere! Travel safe —
