A dependable, reliable utility van is a key component for a successful carpet cleaning company. It must be broad enough to carry all necessary equipment and strong enough to withstand the weight. Here are three of the most popular cargo vans and identify their strengths and weaknesses.
The GMC Savana is the same family that the Chevrolet Express. It is a robust vehicle that serves the business community for years. The heavy version is a ton (3500) configuration that can come in a version extended wheelbase (155 inches). It is powered by a 6.0 liter V8 that produces 300 horsepower and comes with four transmission speed.
Or the Ford Econoline E-Series cargo van type vehicles similar Workhorse. The heavy version is the E-350 with a 5.4 liter V8 produces 225 horsepower. Upgrades are available a 6.8-liter with 305 hp or a 6.0-liter Power Stroke turbo diesel produces 235 hp. It stands on a wheelbase of 138 inches and also features a four-speed automatic.
The Dodge Sprinter is a commercial van produced by Daimler-Chrysler (now Daimler only). Redesigned in 2007, the new Sprinter has a body with more cargo space through a large 170-inch wheelbase option and extended roof. Version Heavy is wearing a 3500 turbo diesel 3.0 liter produces 154 horsepower. It is the only engine option.
The most important differences between these three cars is the amount of cargo space and powertrain options. The wheelbase of 170 inches Sprinter option is longer than anything Ford or GMC can offer. It also has the distinction of offering different ceiling heights up to 7 foot ceiling standard of 4.5 meters in the other vans. On the negative side, its the most expensive of the three and not without improvements to the engine, if you need to do much more heavy transport.
So your options are. The Ford E-Series vans and GMC Savana are powerful, reliable and easily accessible to both new and used. The new Dodge Sprinter is more spacious and comfortable, but is used less and delivers more costs than Ford or GMC.
Any of these trucks to do the job, but it's a good idea to do research as possible to find the best solution for your business.
