Transportation Vehicle Dimensions, Capabilities & Features

Exact dimensions will vary by vehicle type, make, model, body style, and year. Here are some helpful considerations to keep in mind:

• Vehicle size and number of passenger seats: How much space and how many passenger seats do you need? Passenger capacity will vary by model. Dodge Grand Caravan, Chrysler Pacifica, and Toyota Sienna passenger vans have a seven-person capacity. We also carry Ford Transit and Mercedes Sprinter vans with 10 passenger capacity, 12 passenger capacity, and 15 passenger capacities.
• Head room: If you’re looking for extra space, consider a van with a high roof.
• Cargo capacity: You may need to transport more than just passengers. Our pre-owned cargo vans have a cargo capacity range of 123-462 cubic feet.
• Gas vs. diesel: Diesel-equipped vehicles have a higher acquisition cost, but may be a better investment if you consider the total cost of ownership. Also, keep mileage in mind. Typically, 30,000 to 35,000 is a good base to start seeing the advantages of a diesel engine.
• Mileage: The mileage will depend on what the vehicle was previously used for and how often it was driven. We have vans with fewer than 1,000 miles and more than 250,000. Typically vans with fewer miles will have a higher price tag.
• Reliability: Do your homework. Research the makes and models you’re interested in, and see how they fare in terms of awards, ratings, and reviews. See if there have been any recalls, and if so, how many.
• Towing capability: The tow capacity of a vehicle is the total amount of weight your vehicle can tow safely behind it. The tow capacity is set by the manufacturer and can be found in the owner’s manual or on a label on the driver’s side door.

Transportation Vehicle FAQs

Q: What are the best transportation vehicles?
A: Cargo and passenger vans are top choices for transportation vehicles. Our passenger vans seat 7, 10, 12, or 15 people. You’ll find vehicles in top condition from reputable manufacturers such as Dodge, RAM, Ford, Chevrolet, and GMC.

Q: How many miles will a passenger van last?
A: The upper end for a well-maintained passenger van is around 250,000–300,000 miles on average.

Q: What should I look for in a used transportation vehicle?
A: Mileage is important, especially depending on how much you’ll be using the van. Make sure the vehicle has passed a proper maintenance inspection and doesn’t show any signs of rust. In addition, you’ll want to review the vehicle’s history, passenger space, interior condition, tires, brakes, fluids, lights, and suspension.

Q: Is the vehicle’s history available?
A: Any reputable dealership will also provide you with a CARFAX report, which details the vehicle’s ownership history, any previous accidents, service history, and how the vehicle was used.

Q: How much will a pre-owned van cost?
A: The price will depend on the year, make, model, and mileage, but expect newer models to have a higher price tag. You can typically find a used passenger van with low mileage for anywhere between $16,500–$45,000, although occasionally we do have options above and below that range. The bulk of our cargo van inventory falls within the $50,000–$55,000 price range.

Q: What is the typical mileage on a pre-owned van?
A: The mileage will depend on what the vehicle was previously used for and how often it was driven. We have vans with fewer than 1,000 miles and more than 250,000. Plus, you can search our inventory by mileage, which makes it easy to find exactly what you're looking for.
