Nissan provides Free Advertising for NV Owners

No Cost 3M Graphics Packages 

One thing that can be said for vehicle graphics or "Van Wraps" is that they are effective forms of advertising. A cargo van, wrapped with your company logo can gets thousands of "impressions" or views per day, just being driven around town. Now calculate the time it sits parked at the shop, the Home Depot or even at a stoplight and you can see that wrapping your Nissan NV Cargo Van is one of the most effective ways to spend advertising money. Nissan understands this and is offering you a great incentive on the Nissan NV Cargo Vans - up to seventy square feet of vehicle graphics at no cost to you!

Here's how the process works. Upon purchase of your Nissan NV Cargo Van the selling dealer will send your claim to Nissan North America for processing. At that point 3M Original Wraps will be in touch with you to collect your information such as digital copies of your business logos, pictures of current vehicles and ideas you may have for your new van. You will receive 1 hour of complimentary design time and a proof of your new vans graphics will be created. Once you approved the proof, the graphics are printed and shipped to the nearest 3M Diamond Certified Installer near you for installation.

I guarantee that these vehicle graphics will not only look great, but they will make you money! Please see below for some examples of what 3M Original Wraps can do and keep in mind that some of these examples have more than the 70 square feet that are available at no cost.

Section 179 Tax Breaks - The Nissan NV Qualifies - do you?

Section 179 Tax Breaks mean Big Savings

At this time every year Vacaville Nissan is flooded - not with rain but rather business owners in a mad dash to save tens-of-thousands of dollars on their taxes. The saying "You gotta spend Money to Make Money" definitely applies in this situation and here's how.

First let me start out with saying that I am not a tax consultant. I find the tax code to be vague, generalized and flat out boring. What I do know is that there is a benefit for some companies to purchase Nissan NV Cargo Vans for their company use and that you should consult your accountant or CPA prior to making any purchases.

For most businesses that purchase vehicles for business use that have a Gross Vehicle Weight of over 6,000 lbs. there is the previously stated "huge" tax benefits. The IRS allows businesses to write off large amounts of the purchase price for vehicles that fit the criteria under Section 179 in the tax code. The amount able to be written off varies from company to company but here is a example calculation of what you may be able to write off.

Lets say you buy a Nissan NV Cargo Van from Nissan of Vacaville for $30,000. This calculator can also be found on www.Section179.org

Nissan rebate targets Ford and Chevy Owners

Nissan Commercial Vehicles Targets the Competition

November 4th, 2013

Nissan Commercial Vehicles announced Friday a new Customer Incentive aimed at acquiring more business from its competitors.

The Nissan Commercial Vehicle Conquest program rolled out the 1st of November offering current registered owners and lessees of competitor vehicles an additional rebate not previously available.

If a customer is the current owner or lessee of a Ford or Chevrolet Cargo Van or Pick-up they will be entitled to an additional $1,000 rebate on top of all other offers! This is obviously aimed and stealing business from its main competitors during the 4th quarter, which is typically "white-hot" in Commercial Vehicle Sales.

Which vehicles qualify? Well, here's a partial list of which vehicles will qualify for the program:

  • Chevrolet: Express 1500, 2500 or 3500 cargo vans. Silverado 1500, 2500 or 3500 Pickups
  • Ford: E150, E250 or E350 Cargo Vans or F150, F250, or F350 Pickups
  • Dodge: Ram 1500, 2500 or 3500 Pickups, Ram Vans or Sprinters
  • GMC: Savannah 1500, 2500 or 3500 or Sierra 1500, 2500 or 3500 Pickups
  • Mercedes: Sprinter Vans

Things to keep in mind in order to qualify:

  • The Competitor Vehicle must be currently registered/owned by the Customer
  • The vehicle does NOT need to be traded in at the time of purchase of a new Nissan NV
  • The Nissan NV must be registered/titled the same way as the competitor vehicle 
  • This program may not be in available in all areas (it is in Vacaville, CA though

Why I think the Nissan NV is better than a Ford Van

Aside from the obvious styling differences there are several things that set the Nissan NV Cargo Van apart form its competition. Let me preface the following paragraphs by saying each manufacturer has attributes that set it apart from one another, and then find ways to make those attributes sound like a benefit over the competition. Here are some of the Nissan NV Cargo Van attributes that I think are undeniably a benefit, no matter how one looks at them!

10. Braking - The Nissan NV has the largest brake rotors in its class with 14.2" Front and 14.4" Rear Rotors. The larger the rotors, the better they dissapte heat and in turn - the better braking power you have.

9. Turning Radius - The NV has a 45.2' Turning Radius compared the Blue Oval Van which has a 48.6' turning radius. Ever try making a U-Turn at a stop light in a Ford Econoline? I rest my case!

8. Horsepower - The widely popular 4.0L Nissan V6 has 261 horsepower and 281 lb. ft. of torque. When compared the Ford Econoline's 4.6L V8 engine (yes, comparing a V6 to a V8) the Nissan has a 36 horsepower advantage and only 5 lb. ft less of torque.

7. Cargo Height - The Nissan and Ford share similar height profiles yet the Nissan manages to squeeze in an extra 3.9" of cargo height in the back. 3.9" may not sound like a lot until what you are loading does not fit! Also the NV's near vertical sidewalls decrease the "wasted space" behind cargo shelving.

6 .Cargo Width - At 54.3" the Nissan offers over 3" of additional space between the wheel wells over our competitor. Add in the fact our wheel wells are flat and that's a winning combination!

 5. Standard Features - A side by side comparison shows that the Nissan NV Cargo Van has a wide variety of standard options that Ford requires you to pay for such as a CD Player, D-Ring Tie Downs, and a Sliding Cargo Door. There are also many features that the NV Cargo Van offers that Ford does not!

4. Center Console - Contractors need somewhere to store their stuff, charge their phones, keep their files and have a desk to write on. Nissan gets it. Our center console offers all this and much more!

3. Transmission - The NV's engine is paired with a 5 speed automatic transmission while the Ford is still rockin' a 4 speed automatic like they have for 20 years!

2. Incentive Package - At Nissan we don't tell our customers to figure out your up-fits on your own - we give them to you for free! With choices of cargo partitions, cargo shelves, roof racks, vehicle grahics and more - the Nissan NV will be ready to work in no time - all at no cost to the customer!

1. No Doghouse - This one is a biggie for me. Once upon a time I drove a moving van (Ford) across the country. With the engine literally at my feet it was cramped, noisy, hot and all around uncomfortable. The Nissan's engine is mounted out front like a truck - this means no doghouse, a more comfortable ride, more foot room, and easier vehicle maintenance.

Nissan NV Cargo Van - Free Bulkhead and Shelves?



Adrian Steel & Nissan to provide No-Cost Shelving Options

One of the reasons the Nissan NV Cargo Van has been so popular with our customers is the No-Cost Vehicle up-fits offered by a partnership with Nissan and Adrian Steel. This incentive offers Nissan NV Cargo Van owners their choice of not only Racks & Bins, but Ladder Racks or Utility Roof Racks for the NV Cargo. There are also Contractor Upgrade Packages offered on the NV at a heavily discounted price!

FedEx Home Delivery Contractors who purchase NV Cargo Vans in the Sacramento and San Francisco Bay Area prefer the High Roof Utility Package which provides you with a Free Cargo Partition.

2013 Nissan NV Cargo Van - Make the Drive from Sacramento

2013 Nissan NV Cargo Van - High Roof

 By now you have seen the Nissan NV Cargo Van driving on the Sacramento Freeways. They're big, they're bad and they're... (you get the point) The Nissan NV Cargo Van may look different, but that's because it is! There is no cargo van on the market that offers what the NV does and the Domestic Auto Makers are rushing to make a van that competes with us.

Since the launch of the Nissan NV Cargo to the U.S. Market in 2011 we have increased Nissan NV Sales quarter over quarter here at Nissan of Vacaville. A van offering a truck chassis with the option to stand up in the back has many business buying one - only to find themselves buying 2-3 more a year or so down the road. For those of you who haven't had the chance to see one of the beasts up close and personal, here's a tour of what you are missing. The following video is presented by Nissan North America and gives you a first hand look at the NV High Roof Cargo Van as well as its little sister, the NV Low Roof Cargo Van.

Vacaville Nissan Cargo Vans - We got Refrigeration Vans too!

Working for Nissan Commercial Vehicles of Vacaville allows me the pleasure of meeting business owners from all over California. Plumbers, Bakers, Dog Walkers, Seafood Brokers, Electricians - the list is lengthy. The one thing that they all have in common is their Nissan NV Cargo Vans. As the #1 Nissan Cargo Van dealer in Northern California we have done just about everything to a Nissan NV Cargo Van!

We recently completed a Nissan NV 3500 High Roof Refrigeration Van. This van was fully upfitted with a custom cargo liner for the walls, ceiling and doors - it looked amazing! Since the liner is custom the seams are clean and the fit is perfect! Matched with the 35 degree Refrigeration unit our customer was impressed with the 300+ cubic feet of cargo capacity for their seafood delivery business.

This is just another example of what we can do with the Nissan Cargo Van Lineup - for more information click here to visit our Commercial Vehicle Up-fitting Page and as always contact Scott Foy at Nissan of Vacaville with any questions!

Nissan NV200 Cargo Van a BIG HIT here in Northern California

Slowly but surely the Nissan NV200 has been arriving at dealerships across Northern California for the past month or so. The results? It's definitely a sellers market. We are pulling buyers from Sacramento to San Francisco simply because we have the inventory most dealers do not.

The NV200 represents a new class of cargo van first made popular by the Chevrolet Astro back in the 90's. Most recently dominated by the Ford Transit Connect, the compact cargo van market's ranks have expanded to receive the Nissan NV200 with open arms. With an extremely fuel efficient engine, ample cargo room and tons of upgrades from Bluetooth to Back up cameras, the NV200 is doing very well its first 45 days on the ground.

Here at Nissan of Vacaville we are seeing more companies wanting to downsize their current full size cargo vans in an attempt at cutting fuel costs and putting into service a far more manuverable vehicle. The tigh turning radius and 24+ MPG City makes the NV200 a perfect fit for tight city streets. I have several companies reporting back Highway fuel economy averages of 28+ MPG, far exceeding the 25 MPG's stated in the Window Sticker.

When you combine the lower MSRP, options features, FREE vehicle up-fits and the reliability behind the Nissan brand - the NV200 is a great addition to any business fleet.

My recommendation? Contact me directly at SFoy@VacavilleNissan.com to get your NV200 before someone else does!
