    Auto Glass Vehicle Dimensions, Capabilities & Features

    Factors such as type, make, model, body style, and year all have an impact on auto glass repair vehicle dimensions. This means that the exact dimensions will vary between different vans and trucks. 
    Ultimately, the vehicle you choose will depend on your preference and budget as well as the type of supplies and tools you intend to transport. The following are some helpful considerations to think through as you make your decision:

    Vehicle Size
    This will depend on factors such as the type of equipment or materials you plan on carrying and how much space you’ll need to accommodate both. Our pre-owned trucks and cargo vans come in a range of sizes to fit your needs.

    Cargo Capacity
    While truck beds will vary in width and length depending on the make and model, our pre-owned cargo vans have a capacity range of 123-462 cubic feet.

    Gas vs. Diesel
    Diesel-powered vehicles may come with a higher initial cost, but they typically turn out to be a better investment in the long run. When properly maintained, diesel engines tend to have a longer service life than their gas-powered counterparts.

    Mileage
    Are you looking for a pre-owned vehicle with a specific mileage? Most of our trucks and vans have anywhere between 19,000 and 50,000 miles, but some may have fewer or more.

    Off-Roading
    If the work you’re planning to use your vehicle for involves frequent off-road travel, a truck is your best option. Most trucks have four-wheel drive and sit higher off the ground than vans do. If you plan to stick to paved areas, a van may work just as well.

    Reliability
    It’s always a good idea to research the makes and models you’re considering to see how they compare in terms of awards, ratings, and reviews. Pay close attention to whether there have been any recalls, and if so, how many and what for.

    Seating
    How many passengers will your vehicle need to accommodate? If you’re considering a truck, different cab sizes offer varying seating configurations. You can always upfit your vehicle to add extra seats or jump seats.

    Auto Glass Truck & Van FAQs

    Q: What is the best type of used cargo van or truck for auto glass repair technicians?
    A: This depends on factors such as the equipment or materials you plan to transport, the amount of space you’ll need to accommodate them, and even personal preference. The Ford Transit has been a popular van for many repair businesses, but the selection depends on the size of the business, services, and supplies needed.

    Q: What is the fuel economy for a typical cargo van?
    A: Cargo vans can get anywhere from 15 to 25 miles per gallon, depending on the make and model. One of the most popular cargo vans, the Ford Transit, gets an average of 17-18 miles per gallon (combined). The Ram ProMaster, another great option, averages up to 21-22 miles per gallon (combined). It’s important to remember, however, that these are just estimates. The exact MPG will vary based on payload and driving conditions.

    Q: What is the average mileage for a used cargo van?
    A: The mileage depends on how often the vehicle was previously driven. We offer used cargo vans that range from fewer than 1,000 miles to more than 250,000 miles — and everything in between. You can search our inventory by mileage, which makes it easy to find exactly what you’re looking for.

    Q: How many miles can a cargo van last?
    A: It depends on the make and model. With proper maintenance, cargo vans can last anywhere from 250,000 to 300,000 miles.

    Q: How many miles can a truck last?
    A: Again, it depends. Some can reach 200,000 miles (or more) depending on the make, model, and maintenance.

    Q: What should I look for in a used auto glass repair vehicle?
    A: You want to make sure the vehicle fits your needs and budget. Is it comfortable? Does it have enough room for you, your equipment, and any passengers? Mileage is also an important factor, especially if you plan on driving long distances. Ideally, you should visually inspect the vehicle and look for signs of rust or damage.

    Q: What are the most popular types of upfits for auto glass repair vehicles?
    A: Some of the most popular upfits include floor drawers, glass racks, and rubber floor mats. Upfits, however, will depend on your needs. There are a lot of options, which means we can help you customize your vehicle to your exact specifications.

    Q: How much does a used cargo van or truck cost?
    A: The cost will depend on the make, model, and mileage. The bulk of our cargo van inventory falls within the $25,000 to $35,000 price range, but there are options below and above that range. The bulk of our pre-owned trucks range from $30,000 to $50,000.
