- Comments Off on Do Conversion Vans Hold Their Kelley Blue Book Value?
The Kelley Blue Book is the go-to source for vehicle valuation in the U.S. It determines the value of cars based on factors like trade-in value, private-party value, and retail value. The Blue Book Value of your conversion van also depends on factors like the vehicle’s age, mileage, and overall condition. However the Kelley Blue Book is not great at factoring in additional equipment installed by third parties. So whether you own a handicap accessible van or a passenger conversion van, the book value is only one data point in finding the true market value, which conversion vans do tend to hold relatively well.
Is Kelley Blue Book Always Accurate?The Kelley Blue Book is one of the most accurate sources to learn how much your conversion van is worth. Like any other automobile valuation source, Kelley Blue Book is a reliable source despite the fact that it doesn’t get things right all [...]

- Comments Off on Do Conversion Vans Have Bathrooms?
Conversion vans are known for their versatility and the ability to ferry more passengers than conventional cars. However, it can be difficult to ascertain the difference between a conversion van and an RV.
This could lead to some general misconceptions about the functionality of a conversion van or an RV. With this in mind, it’s natural to have questions like “Do conversion vans have bathrooms?” or “Is a conversion van and RV the same?”
