WE KNOW COMMERCIAL VEHICLES

USED CARGO VANS FOR SALE

This van was the same for so long.  Since we began selling these service vans in the 80’s until now General Motors still makes a van that looks and acts very similar.  The rest of the manufacturers finally went to a different style.  For instance, Mercedes along with Dodge and Freightliner teamed up in the early 2000s and build the Sprinter.  This work van is a much taller version of the traditional cargo van you see for sale. They also make options with higher roofs.  This is especially important to contractors that can stand up without bending over in the back of their van.  The Sprinter definitely changed the way a lot of people did business but they came with many struggles.  These early Sprinters struggled with longevity due to mechanical issues and rust issues.  It was rumored that the steel was much thinner because they were built overseas and shipped to the states.  Because of this, they rust much easier.  Now other manufacturers are finally getting into the game.  In 2014 Ford introduced the full-size Transit to the US market.  This cargo van mimicked the Sprinter and offered a similar space.  Not long after Dodge introduced the Promaster and Nissan the NV.  Now, these vehicles seem to be taking over this commercial space.  Since they are relatively new they do seem to break a little more often.  Broadmoor Motors is able to service these work vans as well.  We have been able to get our hands on many of these models and still able to offer the more traditional style van like the Chevy Express or GMC Savana.  Ford also still offers the Econoline as well.  Most of these vans come with a traditional gas motor.  Some have diesel engines.  We sell these commercial vans to a wide variety of contractors including plumbers, carpet layers, electricians, closet installers, carpenters, pest control, transporters, painters and delivery people etc.

USED BOX TRUCKS FOR SALE

Also known as “Moving Van” or “Box Van”. These vehicles typically have a Ford or GM front end.  The manufacturer ships them to an upfitter as a cab and chassis.  Most of the used Box Trucks we see have anywhere from a 10 or 12-foot box up to a 16-foot box.  There are of course smaller and larger versions but we stick to these sizes.  Most are 1-ton vehicles.  Ford calls this their E-350.  We also often see boxes on a 450 chassis or 4500 if it’s a GM.  Other manufactures do make their vehicles into Box Vans but not as often.  There are also “cab-over” vehicles like the Isuzu or Hino.  These are “flat nose” front ends the flip open revealing the engine underneath.  We do get these in from time to time but not as often as Ford or GM.   These boxes are also installed onto a truck chassis as well.  I guess that’s where the term “box truck” comes from.  Typically these vehicles come with a gas motor.  As the trucks get larger then the manufacturer will begin to put a diesel engine as its power.  We tend to sell mostly gas motor vehicles.

USED PEOPLE MOVERS FOR SALE

At Broadmoor Motors we do also carry a wide variety of people movers.  For years we’ve carried full-size vans with wheelchair lifts.  Most are used for business use like nursing homes and hospitals.  Larger versions of these vehicles are considered shuttles.  Most that we carry fit anywhere from 10 to 18 passengers and usually also come with a wheelchair lift.  We sell to many churches, hotels, and schools.  We’ve also been known to get in a limousine as well.  We even stock school buses from time to time.  We try to stick to 15-passenger or fewer since the driver of these vehicles does not need a CDL.

USED MINI CARGO VANS FOR SALE

There has been a recent trend for manufactures to build a small version of their cargo vans.  Most are along similar lines to a traditional minivan.  Dodge even builds a cargo version of their caravan now called a “Ram Cargo Van”.  They also offer a “Promaster City” (a small version of their large Promaster).  Ford does the same thing and refers to it as a “Transit Connect”.  We sell a lot of the “Transit Connect” vans as they seem to be easier to drive, cost less, and are easier to maintain.  GM has also entered into this market with a van they call the “City Express”.

UNIQUE APPLICATION VEHICLES

We do not limit ourselves to just selling the traditional commercial vehicles discussed above (Work Trucks, Box Trucks, Cargo Vans, etc.).  We often get a Bucket Truck or Crane Vehicle on the lot.  These vehicles have very specific uses but we find customers all the time who need a quality option to get the job done on a budget.
