As the largest used conversion van dealers in the country, Dave Arbogast is always looking for preowned conversion vans. If you’re looking to sell your used van conversion call one of the experts at Arbogast. Finding the correct value of your van is very difficult.

Kelley Blue Book, Blackbook and NADA do not account for the very expensive conversion that was added to your van. Often this leads to consumers getting taken advantage of by their local dealer. Many times the dealer has no idea what to give you for your van conversion so they throw out a low number. 

The experts at Arbogast know what your van is worth. They have been dealing with used van conversions for over 25 years. They travel all over the United States purchasing quality used vans. Arbogast doesn’t hassle you on price, they give you a fair number upfront. If you are looking for a no hassle way to see your used van conversion contact Arbogast.

I am a huge football fan. My dad and I figure that we have watched 200 games this season…and that might be conservative. Start on Thursday night, Friday, all day Saturday and all day Sunday, then wrap it up on Monday. Throw in the bowl games (yes, even the meaningless ones!) holidays and the playoffs, and it adds up in a hurry.

So it might surprise you that I am not a huge Super Bowl fan. From the ridiculous pregame show (4 hours, are you kidding me?) to the blabber right before kickoff (do we actually need to watch the coin flip?) to the unnecessary halftime show (The Black-eyed Peas? Give me Martina McBride any day!) With all the fluff going on, one day they will forget to play the game!

So many times the game doesn’t match the hype. I used to watch and read everything I could find leading up to the game. Then watch as one team failed to show up and the score was 35-3 at halftime. So now my Super Bowl begins at 6:15pm, just in time for the national anthem!

Let me tell you about something that needs no hype—the 2011 Explorer Conversion Van, available now at Dave Arbogast in Troy, Ohio. Style, storage and comfort are all part of this vehicle, but it also is full of technological luxuries, or what I call cool stuff.

OnStar capabilities provides emergency services, stolen vehicle assistance, remote ignition block, remote door unlock, vehicle diagnostics and roadside assistance. Its Bluetooth system allows travelers to enjoy personnel cell phone connectivity to the van’s audio system. XM Radio, which is standard in almost every model, includes more than 170 channels ranging from commercial free music, to sports to talk radio. Cool stuff indeed!

The 2011 Explorer can seat up to 7—it has all-wheel-drive, wrap around ground effects, premium leather seating, a full entertainment system, custom chrome wheels—this vehicle needs no hype, and it lasts much longer than the halftime show!

See the all new 2011 Explorer Conversion Van at Dave Arbogast, 3540 South County Road 25-a, Troy, Ohio. Call us today at 1-866-975-3287 and lets us show you how a nine passenger conversion van will fit your lifestyle. And that’s no hype!

For my money—what there is of it—the best commercial on television right now is the one where Mrs. Lincoln asks the President if her dress makes her backside look big. The President, who was known as “Honest Abe” hesitates, and then holds his thumb and index finger about an inch apart and mumbles, making the first lady storm off in anger.

Let’s be honest—Mrs. Lincoln had a big backside regardless of what she wore. I laughed at a friend of mine recently when I noticed the magnet on her refrigerator that reads “My big butt makes my butt look big!” Hey, it is what it is.

Now, here is some honesty about conversion vans. They can be custom built to your wants and needs. They are easier to drive and a lot easier to park than an SUV, and they get better gas mileage too. They feature spacious interiors, luxurious amenities—get the picture? Van Conversions are also the ultimate towing vehicle with a capacity up to 8400 pounds. It is the most versatile vehicle available today.
