Okay, not too late if I kiss my deposit goodbye. Placed an order today for a 1500 136" high roof gasser. Thanks to everyone here for the info they have provided.
Paid a little under invoice, seemed a good deal. So 90% MSRP on van, 85% MSRP on options (you people do know about holdback, right?). In the end, really wanted my graphite color choice, so why not factory order and then get the other things I would have had to aftermarket anyway.
Why not, the 4 month wait, that's why not. But since my vehicles are kept 10 years+, I figured invest to get as close as I can to what I want now.
Moving forward, assuming no dealer trickery, next steps would be outfitting to match my current Econoline setup but better. House battery, large inverter, fold-up bunk, shelving, rear step, thermal insulation, partition curtain, along with a tri-camera setup.
And speaking of my Econoline, I am somewhat determined to better match its 35 gal. fuel capacity. I don't see why I can't find a shallow 8-15 gallon fuel tank to mount on the underside and plumb vent and fill lines to the existing tank.
