Nissan Cargo Vans - Best Value in America!


Nissan Work Vans – the BEST Value in the Business!

 

 

Nissan of Vacaville, the #1 Nissan NV Cargo Van Retailer in California, has been on a HOT STREAK the past 3 years with the Nissan NV and NV200 Cargo Vans! Why? Because our VALUE far exceeds our PRICES!

Are you still buying the same Ford or Chevy Vans after all these years out of habit? STOP! See below for what Nissan has to offer and what you are missing out on!

Only Nissan offers a 5 year or 100,000 Mile BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY on all new Nissan NV Cargo, NV200 Cargo and NV 12 Passenger Vans! This truly is the best warranty in America!

Every business owner also receives No-Cost Upfit Packages including your choice of:

  • Cargo Partition & Shelving Options
  • Cargo Partition & Roof Rack Options
  • Vehicle Graphics up to 70 sq ft[1]
  • Additional Vehicle Rebates up to $700[2]
Plus, look at these STANDARD features that we offer!

  • Radio w/ CD Player & AUX Input
  • Power Windows[3]            
  • 25 MPG Average Fuel Economy[4]
  • Automatic Transmissions
  • Air Conditioning
  • 4 wheel Disc Brakes[5]
Think about the vans you are currently driving and ask yourself this:
    1. How much peace of mind is having a 5 year or 100,000 mile BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY WORTH?
    2. How much would I save by getting 25 MPG Average in my work vans?
    3. How much would I save by getting my vehicle up-fitting at NO COST?
Do the math! The Nissan Van could be the perfect choice for you and your business!

In closing and to top off this already VALUE PACKED vehicle, Nissan of Vacaville will extend to you 2 years of NO COST MAINTENANCE ON YOUR VAN[6] if you use the following Promo Code "FREEOIL" before September 30, 2016.

Nissan NV Cargo Van - Inventory is King

Nissan Cargo Van Inventory - Size does Matter

May 21, 2016

How many of you out there in the construction trades (plumbers, HVAC, framers, electricians, etc.) have had your cargo van go down when you least expected it sending you scrambling to find another the same day? How many dealers did you have to visit to find something that fit your needs? How many vans did you have to look at before settling on the one you didn't really want in the first place, but that's all that was available?

At Vacaville Nissan in Northern California we understand that your business doesn't stop moving just because your work trucks do. We currently have over 100 Nissan NV Vans available and some are already up-fitted with the Free Adrian Steel Shelving Packages making these vans ready to work the same day you are! We also have a healthy inventory of Nissan Frontiers as well as the new Nissan Titan XD featuring the Cummins 5.0 Turbo Diesel.

You probably aren't in the market today - but when that time comes - keep Nissan of Vacaville in mind! You can view our inventory here and contact Scott Foy our Fleet Manager with any questions!

Why NOT to buy a 2015 Chevrolet Express Cargo Van

Chevrolet Exress 1500 Cargo Van a Thing of the Past

April 27, 2015
 
The Chevrolet Express Cargo Van (and the GMC Savana Cargo Van) have been the "go-to" van for many business owners for years now. It's simple, easy to operate and has been around so long, it's become the "norm".  However, with a few notable changes for 2015, the Chevrolet Express/GMC Savana may no longer be the perfect fit for you that it once was. By limiting engine and Weight Class choices Chevrolet may have handed Nissan a leg up on the competition.
 
For 2015 the Chevrolet Express 1500 and the 4.3L V6 Engine is no longer available. The new staple for Chevrolet Cargo Vans will be the 2500 Series Express Van with the 4.8L V8. Most businesses out there do not need the increased payload of the 2500 nor do they need a V8 engine, both options which will now cost you more. This is where Nissan's NV 1500 Cargo Van can fill that hole nicely. Equipped with a 4.0L V6 and touting 261 Horsepower and 281 lb. ft. of torque, the Nissan NV 1500 offers businesses a "half-ton" cargo van with considerable power and fuel efficiency.
 
When you consider the loss of this 1500 Model, the question has to be asked - what else does the Nissan have the Chevrolet Express doesn't? Here's a list of some differences between the Nissan NV and Chevrolet Express.

If you drive a Chevrolet Express in Northern California you owe it to yourself to touch base with us here at Nissan of Vacaville. As the #1 Nissan Commercial Van Retailer in all of California, we have the inventory, expertise and experience to be your one stop shop for cargo vans, work trucks and more.

Nissan NV Cargo Van Payload Review

I get asked quite often about the payload capacities for the Nissan Commercial Van Lineup and how that relates to everyday usage. Here's a review of the Nissan NV Cargo Van Payloads and some helpful hints to assist you in picking the NV that best suits your needs. Something that needs to be mentioned when calculating payload is that you need to consider EVERYTHING going in to the back of the van plus fuel, driver and passenger body weight, weight of shelving, partitions and other up-fits. 

Nissan NV 1500 V6 Cargo Van - Low Roof
Payload Range = 2,535 -2,590 pounds

Nissan NV 2500 V6 Cargo Van - Low Roof
Payload Range = 3,031 - 3,141 pounds

Nissan NV 2500 V8 Cargo Van - Low Roof
Payload Range = 2,976 - 3,086 pounds

Nissan NV 3500 V8 Cargo Van - Low Roof
Payload Range = 3,747 - 3,925 pounds

Nissan NV 2500 V6 Cargo Van - High Roof
Payload Range = 2,866 - 2,921 pounds

Nissan NV 2500 V8 Cargo Van - High Roof
Payload Range = 2,755 - 2,866 pounds

Nissan NV 3500 V8 Cargo Van - High Roof
Payload Range = 3,582 - 3,637 pounds

Now, let's take a look at some weight ranges for common tools and materials to give you a better idea of what you carry and which van would work best for you!

4'X8' Sheet of 1/2" Plywood = 40-50 lbs.
1 Pallet of 530 Bricks = 2,400 - 2,600 lbs.
10 bags of Concrete = 500 lbs.
5 gallon bucket of Paint = 45-50 lbs.
Average Tool Bag = 30-40 lbs.
(100) 2x4's = 960-1,000 lbs.

By getting a good idea of how much cargo you use on a daily basis you can begin to figure out which Nissan Cargo Van would best suit your needs. Figure in 14 gallons of fuel at 8 lbs. per gallon, 200 lbs. per person in the vehicle, the weight of your van's shelving and there you go!

Nissan NV200 Cargo Van vs. Ford Transit Connect


Nissan NV200 

vs. 

Ford Transit Connect



by Scott M. Foy
Vacaville Nissan

The NV200 sales cycle is in full swing and after 9 months I can say sales have been great here in the Northern California Bay Area. Our only true competitor, the Ford Transit Connect has been doing well also as we both share a compact, manuverable, and fuel efficient compact cargo van. While from the outside they may look similar, I can assure you there are a few key differences that give the NV200 the heads up.

Molded Adrian Steel Partition

The longer cargo floor and molded Adrian Steel Bulkhead/Partitions allow the driver seat to travel backwards to the maximum stopping point, allowing longer leg drivers much more comfort. I'm 6'6" and actually feel comfortable in the NV200.

Longer Cargo Floor

I've heard from several Ford Transit Connect owners that getting even a 6-foot ladder in their van is difficult, most of the time it's impossible depending on the configuration. With the specially designed cargo partition/bulkhead in the NV200, and 6-foot ladder fits with room to spare.

City Fuel Economy

With an estimated 24 MPG city, the NV200 has a 3 mile-per-gallon edge over the Transit Connect. While the transit connect has a 2 mile-per-gallon advantage on the highway, I've heard from many customers that the NV200 Highwayt Estimated MPG is much lower than what customers are actually getting.

All in all each vehicle has its own attributes and features that some buyers find attractive. Some buyers have an issue with the Transit Connect being built in Turkey (yes, the country) and some buyers prefer having a "long-lasting Japanese product.

There are a few other items which give the NV200 and edge over the Transit, which are listed below.

Why by a Nissan NV Work Van?

Why by a Nissan NV Work Van?

by Scott M. Foy
Vacaville Nissan 
Vacaville, CA 

With the release of the Dodge Promaster, the continued production of the Mercedes Sprinter and the rumors of the newly designed Ford Transit coming over from Europe, the question being asked is; Why should I buy a Nissan Work Van? With so many vans competing for the same business, what makes one better over the other? A huge part of the answer is your intent of use - how you plan on using the van and what features are most important to you. I have first hand Nissan experience, so here's my justification of why the NV is a good choice.

Forward Engine Design

The NV will still offer a pickup truck based van, with the engine mounted all the way to the front. While certain competitors will offer a "doghouse" design with the engine sort of half in and half out of the driver area. If you have grown accustomed to driving a pickup, the NV will feel more like home to you than sitting up very high over a short nosed cargo van offered by our competitors.

Center Console

While it sounds fairly insignificant, the center console has played a large role in decision making for NV Cargo Van purchases. The large, lockable center console in NV features a sliding surface for writing, large interior storage with a laptop shelf, 12V power, storage tray, section for hanging file folders, business card and pen holder and an optional 110V power outlet. This center console, when used in part with the hard back flat-floding passenger seat, truly creates a mobile office on wheels!

Standard 2500 Features

The designers of the Nissan NV put a lot of thought into features that business owners use most and then compared that list with the Standard Options on our competitor's work vans. Small things like, I don't know, a radio are options on some of our competitors? Really? Here are some very popular features that are standard on the Nissan NV that you may find yourself paying extra for on a competitor's lot, or maybe not at all since they don't offer it!
  • 26 Speed HVAC system
  • AM/FM Radio with Single CD and AUX Input
  • Power Mirrors
  • 5-speed Automatic Transmission
  • Tilt Wheel
  • Center Console
  • Underseat Driver Storage Drawer
  • (3) Overhead Storage Bins
  • 3 sets of Interior Cargo Lights 
  • 243 Degree Wide Opening Rear Cargo Doors

Customer Incentive Packages

Nissan Commercial Vehicles offers its customers multiple choices under their No-Cost Customer Incentive Program. Options include addition up-fit rebates, vehicle graphics, cargo partitions, shelving, ladder racks, and credits towards upgraded up-fit packages. Some of our competitors offer a credit, which typically requires you to come out of pocket for full packages like what we have to offer through Adrian Steel. Other competitors offer no type of customer incentive package at all, leaving you all alone to figure it out. I can say from experience with the NV that the Nissan CIP has been a huge part of our success.

Ride Quality

Part of my training as a Nissan Commercial Salesperson was to drive competitor's work vans and compare the ride quality to ours. The NV experience can be described as a pickup truck or large SUV ride - smooth and fairly quiet. It drives me crazy when people say "It feels a little heavy and sloshy". Really? A 9 foot tall cargo van that weighs 5,500 pounds didn't have the sporty feel like your 370Z sports cars? Say what???

When I drove the competitors vans I felt cramped, uncomfortable and noticed a significant amount of road noise. Sitting behind a wheel for 8 to 10 hours per day makes ride quality rank towards the top of my list. Very few people, once they drive a Nissan NV CargoVan, don't like. I've heard a thousand times, "This drives just like my Truck".

FedEx to Test all Electric Nissan NV200

Electric NV200 undergoes FedEx Testing

by Scott M. Foy

A subsidiary of FedEx Corp., FedEx Express announced that they will begin testing the Nissan e-NV200, an all-electric compact cargo van, under real world conditions in Washington.

This test marks the first time the vehicle will be used on North American roadways. Japan, Singapore, the United Kingdom, and Brazil have already seen their tests of the e-NV200 by FedEx Express and Nissan.

Both companies are committed to reducing the environmental impact of their operations worldwide. Using the e-NV200 in their fleet is part of the FedEx EarthSmart program -  a global platform designed to guide the company's environmental commitment in the communities where it operates. For Nissan, this effort aligns with its "Blue Citizenship" corporate social responsibility program. The focus of this program is to increase the number of vehicles that emit no greenhouse gases by exploring additional segments where its electric vehicle may be applied.


FedEx will deploy the Nissan e-NV200 in the Washington, D.C. market where it will undergo field tests that subject it to the routine requirements of a delivery vehicle. The end results will be reviewed to determine the viability of using an electric vehicle in this role. Mass production of the Nissan e-NV200 is scheduled to begin later this year in Europe, according to the delivery company.

Nissan NV Cargo Van & Adrian Steel Upfit Packages



Every contractor has their work van setup differently depending on the job it needs to do. Locksmiths, HVAC Contractors and Electricians now have a little bit easier time getting their vans up-fitted with the Nissan NV Cargo Van Contractor Up-fit Packages provided by Adrian Steel. Instead of taking the standard cargo van racks and bins, contractors can choose from one of six pre-configured packages. These packages come designed keeping an individual tradesman's needs in mind, along with an upfront Customer Co-pay Price. Please see our review of the most popular packages we sell and contact us directly for more information.


Adrian Steel Electrical Package - $1,121 Co-Pay

The Electrical Package features the standard AD Series Shelving, but stuffed to gills with functional organizers. There are two full-shelf locking doors for larger power tool security and. The curbside of the van features an AD Series Shelf with small parts pull-out storage drawers, a locking door and a 4 hook bar at the rear. The streetside features two AD Shelves fully stocked with individual Blue Storage Bins that can be removed for easy re-stocking and cleaning. Also these streetside shelves are equipped with upper tier storage dividers, allowing the contractor to maintain some order with there medium and large parts storage. To the rear of the curbside shelves there is a wire tiered wire spool holder as well.

Adrian Steel HVAC Package - $992 Co-pay

Once again the AD Series Shelving is used as the platform for this functional HVAC Contractor Package. Shelf dividers, blue bins, small part storage drawers and a locking shelf door all carry over from the previous package, however a 30-pound Freon tank holder is added to the rear street-side shelving. Designed to carry a maximum of 3 tanks, this rack is secured to the lower and upper shelving rails for a snug fit, and bottle straps keep your tanks in place. 

Locksmith Package - $1,900 - $2,400 Co-Pay

Now we come to my personal favorite, the Adrian Steel Locksmith Package. Out of the 5 Locksmith Packages we've sold, only one has been to an actual locksmith. The large, sturdy workbench and plentiful storage make the Locksmith Package a mobile workshop on wheels. Maintenance contractors LOVE having somewhere out of the rain/sun to go and work. There's enough storage space to keep a well stock van at all times. Add in a few additional LED strip lights and a rear A/C unit and this van is literally a rolling workstation. The Low Roof and High Roof designs differ, hence the dual pricing of $1,900 or $2,400.

There are several other up-fit packages available and you can get more information about them by visiting our website here and speaking with Scott Foy.
