HansenVending Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Yeah, you probably don't want to try to do that out of a Cherokee. Buy something bigger than what you think you will need. That was my plan but I'm cheap and didn't want to pass on the Astro I got for less than half of what the bigger vans I was looking at were going for.

NinnJinn Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 After loading 10 cases of 20oz bottles and stocking my machines from my 1995 Grand Prix GTP today, My back is telling me it is time to upgrade my vehicle! I had made plans this summer to purchase a new vehicle next spring, but my back is screaming do it NOW!!! I have really been interested in a Prius, since my vehicle will also be a "Dad's Taxi" and the high MPG rating but still looking around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mission vending Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 Not only that but how in the heck is that little thing going to carry more than 5-6 cases at a time? Right now that may not be a big deal but if you add a few machines in the spring you will do a lot of driving back and forth and wind up wasting the gas you are saving.

gumball guy Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 One suggestion....for everyone in vending......it is worth considering a a metal screen (between you and your cargo) to keep you safe in an accident. I know it is tough on a tight budget but it could save your life in an accident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antoniocinisi Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 I'm a step van guy, and love it! Bought a used USPS van from a local dealer. It was already fitted with perfect shelving for my needs. Step vans are great in inclement weather. There is a reason the big parcel delivery companies favor them for multi-stop routes. good idea,thats what my first vending vehicle will be when the time comes.is it cold in the winter in it?

JEREMYTINA Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 We use a black Kia Sedona now. With the third row seating down, I can fit four or five machines plus all of the candy, toys, tolls etc for the route, and my kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
