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.

Adrian Steel Roof Rack Review - Vacaville Nissan

Review - Adrian Steel Roof Racks for Nissan NV Cargo Van

January 11, 2014
by Scott M. Foy


As a large Nissan Commercial Dealer in Northern California I have had my share of feedback from customers using the Adrian Steel Roof Racks. Based on their experience (and my own) I have compiled this review to give prospective buyers an idea of what they can expect.



Adrian Steel Nissan NV Standard Roof 2-Bar and 3-Bar Roof Rack

While the 2 and 3-bar roof rack is fairly inexpensive, this rack leaves much to be desired. The Nissan NV has reinforced mounting points for the roof rack which are designed to eliminate the need to drill into the van to mount accessories. The problem with this rack is that the first set of mounting points at the back of the van leave the area over the rear cargo doors exposed, resulting in damage from mounting ladders, lumber and other items. I would avoid this roof rack if at all possible.

Adrian Steel Nissan NV Standard Roof 3-Bar Roof Rack with Rear Roller

The 3 bar roof rack with rear roller completely eliminates the issues listed for the standard 2 and 3-bar roof rack. The roller protrudes off the back of the van, providing a platform to rest your ladders/lumber on, and then assists your items onto the rack using the roller system. This is a great option, functions well and holds up to heavy duty use. This is a recommended rack, however; shorter drivers may have difficulties getting the items up onto the rack all the way.

Adrian Steel Nissan NV Standard Roof EZ Load

The patent pending design of the EZ Load Ladder Rack brings the ladder down the side of the van about 6” towards the operator making it easier to reach when you unload and more importantly, when the operator has to load the ladder, they no longer have to lift the ladder to the top of the cargo van reducing the risk of injury. This is actually a very nice rack, available in single and double configurations. This is a ladder rack, and lumber/pipe is not designed to be carried. You will need to invest in a Roof Mounted Pipe Box. No bungee cords are needed as four brackets secure the ladder tightly in place during transportation. Proper adjustment should take place when you first load your ladders on the EZ Load Rack, which can hold extension ladders up to 36' and A-Frame ladders up to 8 feet.

Adrian Steel Nissan NV Loadsright Ladder Racks

Now these racks are cool. Adrian’s LOADSRITE Ladder Racks easily raise and lower to eliminate the need to climb, stretch or reach for your ladder on top of your van. The unique design of the LOADSRITE presents the ladder in a diagonal position bringing it to a comfortable working height in the right way. LOADSRITE, the right way to load and unload ladders. Available in single and double ladder configurations they can be pricey, but these are by far the easiest way to load ladders. If you own a Nissan NV High Roof Cargo Van this is really the only way to carry ladders. There are other rack makers who offer a High Roof Rack, but getting anything up there (almost 9 feet in the air) requires a second ladder.

Vacaville Nissan - Leaf now in 4th Production Year



Nissan Leaf Charges into 4th Production Year

January 9, 2014


As the 100 percent electric Nissan LEAF enters its fourth model year, its popularity and sales continue to soar. Nissan LEAF provides consumers the benefits of an all-electric  car – a quiet and fun driving experience, lower operating costs, the increased convenience of fueling at home and less scheduled maintenance – at a price after tax incentives that rival comparable gas-powered vehicles.
For the 2014 model year, the estimated driving range for LEAF on a fully-charged battery is rated at 84 miles and MPGe ratings are 126 City, 101 Highway and 114 Combined. LEAF is assembled in the United States at Nissan's Smyrna, Tenn., assembly plant, with battery production taking place next door in the country's largest lithium-ion (Li-ion) automotive battery plant.
The 2014 Nissan LEAF is available in three trim levels: LEAF S, SV and SL, along with option packages offering advanced systems such as Around View® Monitor and seven-speaker Bose® energy efficient audio. Enhancements for 2014 include the addition of the RearView Monitor as standard equipment on all models (previously part of the S-grade Charge Package) and one new exterior color – Gun Metallic (seven total available colors).
Three Well-Equipped Models, Three Option Packages
The 2014 Nissan LEAF is offered in three well-equipped models, the LEAF S, LEAF SV and LEAF SL. Standard features include a six-way manual driver's seat, four-way manual front passenger's seat, trip computer (instant and average energy consumption, driving time, outside temperature and autonomy range), Automatic Temperature Control (ATC), center console storage, RearView Monitor and 3.6 kW onboard charger.
Other standard equipment includes Nissan Intelligent Key® with Push Button Start, power windows with driver's window one-touch auto up/down, power door locks with auto locking feature, remote charge door release, two cupholders, four bottle holders, variable intermittent windshield wipers, a 12-volt power outlet and 16-inch steel wheels with full wheel covers.
The Nissan LEAF SV model adds Nissan Navigation system, 7.0-inch color LCD screen, CARWINGS telematics, six-speaker audio system, Pandora® link for iPhone®, 16-inch aluminum-alloy wheels, 6.6 kW onboard charger, a hybrid heater system that provides superior cold weather performance while consuming less energy, cruise control, auto-dimming inside mirror, partially recycled cloth seat fabric, passenger side map pocket and "B-mode" regenerative braking.
The 2014 LEAF SL model adds a photovoltaic solar panel spoiler, fog lights, auto on/off headlights, cargo cover, HomeLink® Universal Transceiver, Quick Charge Port, leather-appointed seats, LED headlights and 17-inch aluminum-alloy wheels.
Three option packages are offered, allowing buyers to further select the exact equipment and features for their needs. The Quick Charge Package (S grade only) includes the 6.6 kW onboard charger and Quick Charge Port. The LED Headlights + Quick Charge Port Package (SV grade only) includes LED headlights, auto on/off headlights, fog lights and Quick Charge Port. Finally, the Premium Package (SV and SL grades) offers the advanced Around View® Monitor and Bose® seven-speaker audio.
A Roadside Assistance program is offered for 36 months at no charge, as is service for the CARWINGS telematics system.
The advanced Li-ion battery pack carries an industry-competitive warranty of eight years or 100,000 miles. Under an expanded New Electric Vehicle Limited Warranty, Nissan will protect against capacity loss in LEAF batteries that fall below nine bars, of the available 12 bars displayed on the vehicle's battery capacity gauge, for the first five years or 60,000 miles in the United States, whichever comes first.
U.S. Nissan LEAF production is sourced from assembly and battery production facilities in Smyrna, Tenn., and it is assembled on the same line as Maxima and Altima sedans. Nissan has a 30-year history of building quality vehicles in Smyrna. Nissan's Li-ion battery plant is in an adjacent facility which is the largest lithium-ion automotive battery plant in the U.S. Nissan is currently the only automaker that manufactures its own electric vehicle (EV) batteries.

Vacaville Nissan NV Fuel Economy Test - True MPG

Nissan NV Cargo Van Fuel Economy Test - True MPG Rating

January 7, 2014
by Scott M. Foy

This is a fuel economy test for a Nissan NV 2500 High Roof Cargo Van with the 5.6L V8 engine. I get asked about fuel economy a lot by customers, so I figured a real world test would do the trick. This van had about 500 pounds of payload and was run a fairly flat and straight stretch of freeway at 65-66 miles per hour. It's not a cross country tour with mountains and hills, but it's a start!

2014 Nissan Altima - Perfect Fleet Sedan?

Big Business Chooses Altima - Why don't you?


As a Fleet Manager for a large volume Nissan dealer in Northern California I have seen an influx of "Big Business" purchasing of the Nissan Altima 2.5 S Sedan. Very few vehicles this size offer the comfort, convenience, features and fuel economy that the Altima does. 

The Altima also meets most business minimum requirements - 30+ Combined MPG, Bluetooth Hands-free Phone System and the Made in America title.

The 2.5 S comes standard with power windows, power locks, key-less entry, cruise control, Bluetooth Hands-free, Nissan Intelligent Key, and tilt wheel. Factor in the Altima's estimated 27 MPG City and 38 MPG Highway and the Altima 2.5 S Sedan is a great option for Business owners. The Timing Chain needs literally no maintenance compare to timing belts and the Zero G Driver Seat adds maximum comfort for those long drives. 2014 Altima is also available in 4 trim levels with two engine options which include a powerful 3.5L V6 engine. 

Some ask, "Why would a business use an Altima?" Here's some great ideas and uses for the Altima in a business environment.
  • Taxi Cabs
  • Outside Salesperson Vehicles
  • Regional Managers
  • Light Delivery Vehicles
  • Real Estate Agents
  • Rental Cars
  • Management Vehicles
  • Executive Vehicles
This list is based on what I have seen lately - the possibilities are really endless. Long story short, the Altima may be the perfect addition to your business fleet!

Billboard Advertising on Wheels - Vacaville Nissan




January 2, 2014

Billboard On Wheels

BE YOUR OWN ADVERTISING AGENCY

Vehicle wrapping, billboards on wheels, carvertising -- when you wrap your Nissan NV Cargo Van or Nissan NV200, you take control of your message. The Nissan Commercial Graphics program will help you give your Nissan NV commercial van a personal touch while promoting your company, products and services at the same time. Wrap your NV with attention-grabbing logo and graphics. Using an online tool, you can decide to simply upload your business' insignia or create something from scratch.

Next time you are cruising on the highway in Sacramento keep your eyes out for all of the Nissan NV Cargo Van logos and graphics - they are hard to miss!

THE NEED TO ADVERTISE YOUR BUSINESS

Advertising is the 'must-do' marketing medium that gets your business in front of your target customers. Because business is mostly local, it is necessary to find ways of advertising your business to the local market without breaking the bank. Placing a billboard ad on a major highway through an agency can be astronomically expensive. Apart from the high cost, other conventional advertising media may not get you the local impressions and business volume that a wrapped mobile vehicle can.

CONVENTIONAL vs INNOVATIVE ADVERTISING

For your business advertising to be effective, it must have multiple and on-going impressions on your target customers. We've all heard the experts say that a radio or TV spot must be heard or seen a certain number of times before the listener/viewer even registers what is be sold by the spot. Also, with the advent of the Internet, print advertising (newspaper, magazine, etc.) are no longer as effective as they used to be because a high percentage of consumers now turn to the Internet first to start their search for products and services they want to purchase in their local communities. A wrapped commercial vehicle wrap is the perfect way to send customers to your website.

HERE ARE SOME STATISTICS TO CONSIDER

An independent study performed by American Trucking Association (ATA) and 3M Commercial Graphics Division, revealed that

  • a single Nissan NV Van with a wrap that traveled in or around a major city generated over 65,000 visual impressions per day 
  • the same Nissan NV Cargo Van with a wrap when traveled in suburban areas of major cities generated over 30,000 visual impressions per day 
The study also revealed that people/customers who viewed the vehicle wrap had the following impressions:
  • 98% of consumers feel fleet graphics created a positive image for the advertising company 
  • 96% said fleet graphics (wrapped vehicles) had more impact than billboards or other outdoor advertising media 
  • 91% of all people notice the words and images displayed on vehicle graphics 
  • 75% of consumers develop an impression about a company and its products based upon vehicle graphics 
  • According to the OAAA (Outdoor Advertising Association of America), mobile advertising can be the most effective and cost efficient form of outdoor advertising with a lower cost per mile.
  • Always on. Unlike radio, print, or television advertising which can be turned off, vehicle advertising is perpetually on. You are always advertising your business -- even when your Nissan NV Van is parked in a private driveway or in front of your business.
  • Advertise at places where you otherwise could not due to cost limitations for your business: For example, trade shows, conventions, and grand openings. Simple arrive in your wrapped Nissan NV commercial van and right away you are already advertising to attendees.


NISSAN NV VANS ARE READY TO WORK FOR YOUR BUSINESS

Whether your business purchases the Nissan NV Standard Roof, Nissan NV High Roof or the new Nissan NV200, you have ample space to create captivating vehicle wraps that will give your business maximum exposure to your customers as you drive around town.

Nissan Frontier Work Trucks


Nissan Frontier - Your Next Work Truck



January 2, 2014

The compact work truck market has been a little upside down for the last year or so due Ford discontinuing the popular Ford Ranger and GM doing away with the Colorado and Canyon. At this point there are really two viable options out there for businesses who need compact pickups for their fleet - Nissan and Toyota.

The Nissan Frontier Pickup, available with two engine choices in two cab configurations and multiple bed options has been the biggest winner thus far. The 2.5 liter 4-cylinder Frontier actually had production delays due in part to running out of engines because of overwhelming demand. Fleet orders alone for the Nissan Frontier has kept the factory very busy!

Available only in a King Cab (Extended Cab) the 2014 Nissan Frontier 4-cylinder is a great option for businesses who need a light pickup truck without the full-size truck footprint. The Frontier offers a 6-foot pickup bed, seating for four and a payload of just over 900 pounds making it capable of most all light duty situations. Unlike our competition the Frontier's pickup bed is 100% metal, where our competitor offers a mixed composite pickup bed. 

When equipped with a ladder or lumber rack and a few tool boxes, the Nissan Frontier is work ready, and at a fair price. With a base MSRP of only $17,990 (destination fees not included) the Frontier can fit into most any budget.* Throw into the mix the Estimated 23 MPG Highway and 17 MPG City and you may find that the Frontier Pickup could replace a few of your pickups and save you have hundreds a month in fuel cost.

Please see below for pictures and as always you can contact us by visiting our website here.

 


* - Please keep in mind this pricing is based on a 4-cylinder S with manual transmission and no air conditioning and does not include the destination fee.

Nissan NV200 Cargo Van Fuel Savings

 

Downsizing Your Cargo Van Fleet for Fuel Economy


January 1, 2014

As a major Commercial Vehicle Dealer in Northern California I must hear the "Fuel Economy" question 20 times per week. What amazes me about this question is that there are probably thousands of businesses driving the absolute WRONG vehicle for their business needs. I recently sold a Nissan NV200 Compact Cargo Van to a company you was using a 3500 1-Ton Cargo Van with a 5.4 liter V8 engine to deliver flowers! This vehicle was averaging 12 miles per gallon and this business was literally throwing money away month after month.

The question that needs to be asked is not what is the fuel economy of a particular vehicle, but what the van will be used for and what payload it will carry. I have yet to meet a florist that needs a 4,200 pound payload capacity, but they bought a van they found on sale or "for cheap" with that capacity. If you are concerned about fuel economy in your Fleet you need to figure out what each vehicle needs to carry on a daily basis. A van that far exceeds your daily needs will probably cost you more than buying the van that is a perfect fit.

The Nissan NV200 is a Compact Cargo Van new to the U.S. market this year. I have been finding over and over that businesses don't just want but need a van like this. 

 Here's a great example of why the NV200 may be a perfect fit for you.

Joe's Plumbing in Anytown USA has five 2500 Cargo Vans with a V8 Engine which average 13 miles per gallon. On any given day all five vans are in the field doing installation jobs and service calls. Driving roughly 100 miles per day there is a fuel cost of about $27.00 per van. If this company can replace two of their vans with NV200's they will spend about $16 per day. While $11 per day doesn't sound like a lot, that's over $2,800 per year in fuel savings. Multiply that by two trucks and there's about $5,700 per year saved just in fuel alone.

Now, this scenario only works if Joe's Plumbing can downsize their vehicles to a compact cargo van like the NV200, which in most cases the answer is yes. Ask any contractor what they have in the back of their van and they will usually say "Everything I can fit in it". Job after job, the unused materials stack up giving the illusion that the van is so completely full there is no way they can downsize. I assure you from experience a majority can - they simply choose not to.

Here's a simple table of what you can expect to save by switching just one van over to a Nissan NV200. As you can see over 5 years the NV200 could save you close to $15,000 in fuel over your current van. Imagine where you can put $15,000 into your business other than your gas tank!

Nissan NV200 Taxi Cab Now Available in California

 

Nissan NV200 Taxi Cab Now Available for California Buyers

January 1, 2014

When Nissan North America won the New York City "Taxi of Tomorrow" bid, I was excited. When they announced that the NV200 Taxi would be sold to other markets I was thrilled. Now that the first NV200 Taxi is on the ground here at Vacaville Nissan, I am ecstatic!

At first it arrived off the truck, covered in white sheets of plastic with hints of yellow shining though. It was pulled then to the front of the dealership where almost everyone stopped working to take a look at it. One of our customers even said "I want to be a cab driver now, just so I can drive it! Look at the roof, it's glass!" they said. 

Nissan definitely hit the nail on the head with this taxi. It not only appeals to its passengers, but more importantly it appeals to the drivers themselves.

From the outside the NV200 Taxi boasts a bright yellow exterior with two sliding side passenger doors. These wide opening doors trigger a rear caution light at the rear of the vehicle when open to let other motorists know a passenger is about to exit the vehicle. Also, when a side door is opened an automatic assist step slides out from under the vehicle to provide a little assistance getting in and out of the van.

The interior of the Nissan NV200 Taxi is almost work ready. A Plexiglas partition comes standard from the factory with a cutout for an automatic payment machine, an in cabin intercom and cash payment window. In lieu of the automatic payment machine option, an aftermarket LCD screen can be mounted for advertising solutions. This will allow the Taxi Owner/Company to charge companies to advertise on the LCD screen with a captive audience!

The seats in the rear of the van seat 3 and are not cloth but rather a leather-looking vinyl for easy cleaning. There are also USB ports and 12 Volt outlets for charging electronics.

In the cabin of the van the driver can enjoy all the creature comforts they would expect from a high end passenger car. Voice activated Navigation, Backup Camera and Bluetooth are all standard features as is XM Radio with a 90-day subscription. The passenger/driver partition is molded to allow the driver's seat to travel all the way back, accommodating long legged drivers. 

We've discussed the comfort and convenience of the NV200, but we're leaving out a key component - practicality. The Nissan NV200 Taxi offers an EPA estimated 23 MPG City and 26 MPG Highway. Compare that to the popular Ford Crown Victoria's gas guzzling V8 and the fuel savings rack up in a matter of no time! The NV200 Taxi also provides drivers/owners a 150,000 mile power-trane warranty, double that of the NV200 Cargo Van. 

So, lets recap - comfortable ride for drivers and passengers, innovative features and technology, great fuel economy and a monster power-trane warranty. The Nissan NV200 Taxi is a win-win!
