Was suppose to look at a Ford transit, took a wrong turn and ended up at the Nissan dealership
Forgetting warranties and gas mileage online comparisons said the Nissan was skinner. Looked too skinny but I am comparing to the NV 1500 we had. Loved that but one pita issue.
I don’t have a personal experience with either one. The family we bought our WC business from 5 years ago went into the carpet cleaning and repair business. About two years ago they bought a Nissan NV200 just for repair jobs. They only had it for about a year. They said it was a lemon; a vehicle setup for repairs jobs was constantly getting repaired.
Had a 2015 nv200 for almost a year before getting rear-ended.
I think they worked out the kinks from when they started making them in 13-14.
Never gave me problems.
But I think the engine is too small if your gonna put a full load inside it. It’s a small 4 cylinder. I never really floored it, just cruised everywhere.
I also test drove a transit when I was shopping around. The roof is so low on it. I think the van is just set up lower to the ground than the nv200.
Everything inside the ford seemed a bit better quality than the Nissan. But the price on the ford was like 23-25k plus taxes and fees.
Should have my Nv200 in possession tomorrow. I liked both vehicles but the added mpg in the city and the larger space of the nv200 sold me. Plus I’m getting mine for $4000 under blue book. I’ll let you know how it goes.
