When you start to look at the large selection of vans available at Paul Sherry Conversion Vans, you will notice that there are two main types: those converted by Sherry and Waldoch vans. In either case, you will be looking at a van that has been enhanced to make it more comfortable and modern or simply to include more features or seating. Both Sherry and Waldoch vans are excellent choices, but you may want to learn more about what sets them apart if you are thinking of buying one.

Flip or Stationary TV

One of the first differences you will notice between Sherry and Waldoch vans is the arrangement for the TV. While both have 32-inch HDTVs, the system on the Waldoch van will flip down, meaning that you can keep it against the roof of the van when not in use. By [...]

Conversion vans and larger vans in general seem to be less popular today than they have been in the past. This change has slowly taken place as minivans became more popular, but people across the country are missing out. Traditional vans are incredibly spacious and offer extra passenger space, making them great for wheelchair van applications, large families, businesses, sports teams, schools, and more. They also offer plenty of advanced technologies so you won’t feel as if you are missing out. When you are looking to buy your next van, you will find plenty of great choices. Search for the following qualities to help narrow down your selection.

Interior Space

Perhaps the most important part of a van is its interior space; after all, this is why most people choose a van over an alternative, like a minivan or SUV. Figure out how many seats you need in your van; you can easily find models [...]

Going camping in a conversion van is one of the best ways to take advantage of your vehicle’s interior space. You can bring along a tent and set it up outside, using the interior of your van to bring people and camping supplies. Or you can remove some of the seats from inside your van and turn it into your tent, perfect for one or two people. With some clever accessories, like tents that attach to the vehicle, you can even combine both options. To make the most of your van camping, you need to pack it correctly, including bringing along the proper supplies and making sure they are accessible.

Keep the Essentials on Hand

Whether you are camping inside the van or just using it for storage, you need to make sure you have all the essential items with you. This should include things like toilet paper, a lighter and candles, a sleeping bag [...]

No matter the type of youth sports that you coach, you will need a vehicle that can take the whole team from place to place in comfort. While you could ask a few parents with minivans on the team to help out on a regular basis, this is putting a great deal of pressure on them. You will find it much easier to just buy a conversion van for your team and never have to worry about a parent having to cancel last minute.

Excellent Rear Storage

When you think about a van for youth sports, you will need something that can fit all of the gear along with the team. Some vans only let you maximize passenger room but require some odd maneuvering to fit things like hockey sticks or baseball bats inside. This isn’t an issue with a Sherry van with its incredible cargo area. Since the interior height is 6 feet 4 inches, [...]

While most people on the road will stick to cars, trucks, or SUVs, some will find that a luxury van from Paul Sherry is the ideal option. These vans fit seven or nine passengers with ease and are spacious with premium appointments. They let everyone ride in comfort and give you unlimited options for uses. While you could always use your luxury van for a shared taxi service, there are plenty of other uses, as well.

Family Vehicle

If you have a larger family, then a Sherry luxury van will be the ideal choice. Since they are ready for nine passengers, you don’t have to worry about having room for everyone when you go to the store, movies, or on another outing. They will always have room for you, your spouse, and several kids, plus their friends.

Business, School, or Hotel Shuttle

Those who run a hotel, business, or school may find a luxury van [...]

No matter where you plan to drive your conversion van, you want to make sure that you are ready for your road trip. Some things to take with may seem obvious, like snacks, but people are likely to forget about other important items to bring. Although there are dozens of things you should check off your list before hitting the road on your next trip, make sure to at least have the following four items, as they are the most important.

We were featured in a Redfin article! Check it out here: Roaming for Relocation: Plan your road trip to find your new home.

Maps

It should be a given that when you go on a road trip you need to have a map of some sort with you, but in this day and age, the definition of a map can vary. You may feel fine using the map application on your smartphone, but you [...]

Vans aren’t known for getting the best fuel efficiency, but you can easily change this. By taking care of your vehicle and driving carefully, it is possible to make your van more efficient. Of course, you will want to choose an efficient model over those that consume more fuel, but following these steps can boost how far you go on each tank of gas.

Don’t Drive Aggressively

Perhaps one of the easiest ways to help your Sherry Van be more fuel efficient is to pay attention to your driving habits and avoid aggressive driving. In fact, starting suddenly and hard braking may lead to consuming up to 40 percent more fuel. Instead, accelerate smoothly and slowly before getting into your high gear quickly.

Keep a Steady Speed

Cruise control can be your best friend when it comes to fuel economy. Driving at a steady speed is one of the top methods of going further on [...]

Planning a road trip with a family is even more challenging than going with a group of friends since you have to keep the little ones entertained. Luckily, there are dozens, if not hundreds, of games you can play with your children during a road trip so they don’t get bored. Factor in other entertainment, like books, books on tape, travel versions of games with magnetic pieces, and portable DVD players, and you don’t have to worry about your children asking if you’re there yet. To save you some time, here are the best family road trip games and everything you need to prepare to play them.

Alphabet Game

The alphabet game is pretty straightforward. You just look for the letters of the alphabet in order. Depending on how old your children are and [...]

The hallmark vehicle driven to events by many endearing fans of NASCAR races across the country was formerly the Class A Motorhome. However, fans are changing their favorite vehicle to get them to the races, and the evolution of the Conversion Van is fueling that change. The standard RV was used more for its occupant carrying capacity than its lodging comforts. Conversion vans built on large chassis cost less, seat more people, have plenty of entertainment options, and are downright fun to drive.

New Commercial Van Chassis Used In Modern Conversions

The RAM ProMaster has been a boon to delivery drivers everywhere, but they are also an incredible platform to build conversion vans on. They are hitting the Class B motorhome market by storm with passenger-carrying van conversions becoming hugely popular as the standard vehicles to move people in comfort and style. One of the largest improvements over older conversion vans is the 76″ of headroom these new [...]

If you are thinking about buying an SUV, you should think a little more deeply and consider your other options. When doing so, you can see that a conversion van offers more, and you will do better with it in most cases. With this in mind, here are six reasons to purchase a conversion van over a SUV.

Price

First and foremost, if you want to save some cash when buying your vehicle, you should consider a conversion van. Simply put, they are less expensive to buy, and you can drive off the lot with thousands of dollars in savings. This is especially true when you start comparing equipment.

Fuel Economy

When you own an SUV, there is a pretty good chance that you will spend quite a bit more money on just fuel. Think about it, if you drive the average SUV, you will struggle to get 20 MPG (if you’re lucky), and you will waste [...]

Fitting a Vehicle to a Person with Mobility Problems

Those of us who have family members or friends with mobility problems understand the difficulties of transportation for them. Travel is not just an issue of vehicle, but also of access to the vehicle by the wheelchair-bound passenger or driver. In attempts to make a wheelchair van compatible and accessible, the vehicle may be less convenient for others, even limiting how a person enters the vehicle or is seated in the vehicle.

Paul Sherry’s Answer—The RAM ProMaster Conversion Van

The RAM ProMaster begins life as a chassis with safety and security options like advanced front airbags (supplemented by seat-mounted side airbags and side curtain front airbags), electronic roll mitigation, electronic stability control, and more… The point is, this front-wheel-drive van is fully outfitted in both low roof and high roof designs, and can safely carry a payload of 4,440 pounds.

We recently received this review on Cars.com:

I inquired on a Saturday morning via a phone call (from Colorado) to Justin Smith @ Paul Sherry Conversion Vans regarding a 2012 GMC Explorer Conversion Van he had advertised on-line. I had been searching for several months to find a specific make/model for myself and family. Justin had posted a very detailed and informative video tour of the Van I was looking for. When I called, he was prompt to reply and confirm the details of the Van as noted on his video. He was extremely helpful in guiding me through the financing/purchasing options available. Within 30 minutes we had the purchase [...]

My family hadn’t visited relatives down south in over two years. Back then, we had rented a far-too-small minivan, drove all night and arrived in Hilton Head exhausted. This time would be different.

Early Saturday morning, in front of our Kansas City home, my wife and I loaded luggage into our new RAM Sherry Conversion Van. Our oldest son, nearly six-foot tall at age 15, took a seat in the back, where he stretched his legs and promptly nodded off. Our younger two, Lisa and Eric, bickered over entertainment before focusing their sibling rivalry into a competitive round of Mario Kart displayed on the 36” HDTV.

“That beats coloring books and magnetic checkers for road-trip entertainment,” my wife commented as I pulled onto I-70.

“No kidding! With the kids occupied and plenty of leg room, we might be able to drive straight through instead of stopping [...]

While many fans drive their cars or trucks to the stadium, serious fans are discovering the one and only way to get the true tailgate experience with their friends is by purchasing a RAM Sherry Conversion Van.

So what is so special about a RAM Sherry Van? For starters, it’s not your Uncle’s Hippy Van. Today’s conversion vans are more like mini-homes on wheels.

With that much room, everyone in the parking lot will suddenly become your friend, wanting to climb aboard and join the Sherry fan club. Heck, even Jay Cutler and Kirk Cousins will want to join that club.

Headroom, always [...]

This is an underdog story of high-top roofs, TVs and wood and leather, an underdog story of a slighted van coming back to best its bully – and it begins with the Dodge Sprinter.

 

A Tale of Two Vans

At the turn of the century, Mercedes-Benz sold a mammoth cargo van in the United States as a Dodge Sprinter. After a few years, Mercedes reclaimed the name, leaving Dodge and parent company Chrysler out in the cold. Once Fiat purchased Chrysler, Chrysler turned to its new father for help, and Fiat obliged. Up its sleeve it had the Fiat Ducato, a popular European van produced for three generations and trusted as a cargo van and motorhome. Built on the Ducato chassis and much to Mercedes’ chagrin, Chrysler unleashed the Ram ProMaster work and cargo van.

Now, the Ram Sherry Van, built on the [...]

Investing in a conversion van can be a beneficial move that provides you with the ability to take many passengers comfortably down the road. Many conversion vans can seat seven to nine passengers, and they may have comfortable seating, entertainment accessories and other amenities. While you may need to select the right style of van with a focus on the interior amenities and the color of your vehicle, you also need to make the important decision about whether to purchase a front-wheel drive van or an all-wheel drive conversion van. When you understand the differences between these two options, you can make a better decision about your van purchase that is right for you.

What Is Front-Wheel Drive?

When you compare the options of vans available, you may determine that a front-wheel drive vehicle has a more affordable up-front cost.  Because of [...]

Compared to Chevrolet, Ford and GMC, the RAM ProMaster Sherry Conversion Van offers many more advantages. From the overall design, interior and mechanical features, the 9-passenger van remains in a class of its own. Could this make the Sherry Van the Ultimate Passenger Van?

 

 

Unlike the Ford Transit conversion van, the factory raised roof of the Sherry Van is part of the framework and not a fiberglass add-on. In fact, the van is more than 17 inches taller, one foot longer and wider, but weighs 300 pounds less. The floor is also lower. In addition to providing more head and leg room, door entrances are wider and taller than the models manufactured by the competition. The rear doors open a full 270 degrees and lock into place when needed. The side door slides open and the width provides ample space in the event [...]

It seats nine people and boasts a 6.0-liter V-8 engine, with options for television and game outlets on the inside.

Cutler is not the only prominent [...]
