her Jack Russells and all her gear when she travels all over the country to the big shows. So she bought her new White Whale, a big 12 passenger Nissan. Now she is planning on all the special add on features that are available. Sorta looks like a freight train was mated to a Mack Truck.

They were the best we found for us to get in and out of our Ram truck. Plenty wide enough and have plenty of room between the step and vehicle body for toe clearance if you are wearing bulky toed boots
Great choice! Good luck with it Colleen

a cargo van with the seats out. The seats are easily removable. The SV model has the big engine, the 5.6 Ltr. It was their showroom model so it has everything on it. The only thing it really needs is Nerf bars as it sits real high.
Yowza, a 5.6L, wow. OK, I'm...

scrapping my plans for an Explorer PUV with a wimpy 3.0L and going with something more respectable like Tahoe PPV with reinforced suspension and tuned 5.0. Thank you for giving me the nudge in the right direction.
Nice, I didn’t know Nissan made anything like that.

. . . in that essentially every vehicle visible in those photos, possibly excepting one, is either a big SUV or some variety of truck, mostly 4X4 types. Says something about the locale.

there, one of the first things I'd get is a big SUV with serious rims and tires like Gary's truck has.
Hunting, fishing, hiking, skiing, off road driving...no regular 4 wheeler can haul all the gear and get you there, especially in snow.
On my way to Gary's shop last summer I saw an F-250 hauling a HUGE boat, must have been a fifty footer, just a couple of blocks from the shop. A quick U-turn and I caught up to them, it was a CIGARETTE, the King of all offshore racing boats costing several hundred thousands. Not being a rich playboy, an oil sheik or a drug dealer, I only got to see those in pictures and Miami Vice TV series. Got to tell you, that Cigarette is one impressive mother. Yeah, I'll take that locale.
up here at 7000 feet (the shop is 7000, we live at 8000 feet

on a good year we will get between 20 and 25 feet of snow, so a good big 4X4 is necessary.
Blessings and prayers for safe travels and reliability
