so i'm pricing out a new juke for the wifey...
and i find THIS!
wth?! are they new? i've never seen nor heard of one before. http://blog.caranddriver.com/nissan-reveals-2012-nv3500-hd-passenger-van-it-carrie... i already can't wait to get a tired used up example in 10 years.
WHOA!!!!
That looks awesome! I want one as a tow vehicle.
Im seeing more and more cargo versions. I saw 2 this week.
They are noticably wider than the Fords and Chevys.
We had a discussion about them a few months ago. Holy cow they're ugly... even by ugly van standards. 
Longer than other vans too, due to the nose, but that's the price you pay to keep the engine out of the interior.
It's an interesting van and good competion for the Sprinter, but right now, I'd wait until the US Transit arrives before making a purchase decision.
In reply to belteshazzar: That's been out a few years alread in concept form. Most people don't care too much about commercial vehicles but the HD version will be competing against the Ford 350 van and the likes. They also have a smaller version which apparently won the bid from a large NY taxi agency. So expect the iconic Crown Vic to dwindle and a fleet of Nissans to appear.
doh! how did i miss that.
Seriously ugly, but seriously awesome. I'd love to see a spec racing series full of them.

Now you're just being silly. 
Nose like Streisand.
I've seen a few of them, they are built in the Titan / Frontier factory in Canton, Ms. To me they look like the offspring of a Titan and an E-series.
Strangely enough, all the one's I've seen so far have been black, burgundy, or dark blue unlike the nearly always white Sprinters, Econolines, and Transit Connects.
They build them right up the road from me. It's the same factory they build Titans and the Altimas at. They're... impressive in person? I hate to call them ugly, because in trucks it it more of a matter of taste than anything.
