My new detailing rig

This is my mobile detailing rig. I am sssso happy to be done with the f150 and trailer.

This van is the TA-DOW. It's so comfy and handle well for it's size. It certainly does better than my old e250 did. That and my mammoth 5'8" frame can stand upright in the back. Everyone that sees it asks me about it. I should have decals within a few weeks.

(generator not pictured)

The paint needs some work. Lot's of swirl marks.

Re: My new detailing rig

I always wanted a Truck to detail out of, I have a Ford Focus and its the pits! But after seeing that thing and thinking of the possibilities, I think I like that much better!

congrats on the new ride, good luck getting the swirls out, post a C&B when you are done!

Re: My new detailing rig

So jealous.

How wide is the cargo area? 5.5'-6'?

Re: My new detailing rig

looks very nice - think its a rebadged Iveco Daily Van from Europe - we have those as one of the standard vans on the streets of the UK all the time

Looks like loads of space for all the stuff

Re: My new detailing rig

We have one of these at work and it has held up VERY well.

Also my dad has the same chassis/engine in his RV.

If anybody is interested the engine is a Mercedes Turbo Diesel.

Very VERY nice van!!! Congratz!

Re: My new detailing rig

It's a rebadged Mercedes.

It's got gobs of space in every way. I can only imagine how nice it would be to have the model that's even longer.
