Just saw the last post come in while typing ...
I am hoping that the towing capacity will not drop much ... on a full size van, they usually raise the body ... drop the floor.
This is done so that the driver (my wife started driving a few years ago) will be looking out the windshield at a normal height. If you are only a passenger, they just raise the roof.
The lift adds some weight but not much.
I think GMC is the only one who produces a full size van.
A 2500 or 3500 with a 6.0 V8 has a rating of 10,000 lbs.
The RV is 28 ft so I am thinking a trailer of 24 - 30 ft.
If I could find on with a decent frame, I don't mind starting with that ... it would save time and money.
Here are two more pictures of my RV:
Note int the bedroom, I have the beds on tracks to I can move them from side to side .... I can then get on both sides of my wife ... makes it much easier to do her care.
Thanks .... Mike
