    gallery_10485_267_543086.png

    Nissan is slowly expanding their NV series of commercial van with the brand announcing a passenger van version this week. Now, Autoblog is reporting that another NV van could be in the wings.

    Nissan's Vice President of Commercial and Fleet Vehicles, Joe Castelli told Autoblog that Nissan is readying a retail version the NV200 van to compete with the Ford Transit Connect. This would help build momentum for the new NV200 Taxi for New York.

    The NV200 is currently on sale is already sold in other markets and Castelli says that some modifications will need to happen before the van goes on sale in the US market.

    Totally hideous little monstrosity, but totally useful as an institutional people mover, or even an anti-establishment family van. It'll be good for the Transit Connect not to have the tiny true van market to itself.

    Its a monstrosity, but Nissan has enough sense to know that if you go through the effort to bring a vehicle to this country, you sell it to all comers, not just to the NYC TLC.

    Unlike GM and their stupidity concerning the Caprice PPC.

    • I love the M1, was thinking of this from the N and W. https://www.american-rails.com/nwk.html Norfolk and Western K class, right before the J class.  I ride slowly and with caution, but sometimes bike on roads with cars. I prefer to ride around as few cars as possible.  Need to visit both. I have been biking the Little Miami trail here in Ohio, Lincoln rode on it back in the day when it was a railroad. In Milford junction there is a bike shop with an old PRR schedule still in a ticket window from 1930.  https://www.miamivalleytrails.org/trails/little-miami-scenic-trail My son is an absolute beast on a motorcycle, as his dad I am hugely relieved that most of his two wheel time any more is spent on a bicycle, not a motorcycle. 
    • At 57 with grandkids, my days of motorbikes and scooters are over, I promised the wife I would not take risks at this stage in life. Like @A Horse With No Name living my best life with the kids and their families out hiking, skiing, seeing the world and being active.
    • Talk of S1 and M1 made me think you were discussing Audis and BMWs until I realized it was about locomotives.   A couple rail museums down in Tuscarawas County, Ohio where I grew up that I've visited that are worth a visit are the Age of Steam Roundhouse in Sugarcreek and the Dennison Depot Museum in Dennison.  https://ageofsteamroundhouse.org/?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=1758318224&gbraid=0AAAAAC5_5odMY_5GWNlWr1gR7xS2mRgRS&gclid=Cj0KCQiAiKzIBhCOARIsAKpKLAM4aibjFEFgI-02HvXmq9p8cTyzyJJPXaxAyOfLMhQFCxbE-sotjvkaAh8TEALw_wcB and https://dennisondepot.org
    • I've honestly had as much or more fun riding my scooters than I did my motorcycles. It's just fun driving the absolute snot out of them and hardly breaking any speed limits(or not even breaking any speed limits) whereas it's far too easy to speed on a motorcycle.  I've had a 1995 Yamaha Jog (not my picture but it looked identical). 50cc 2-stroke.  A 2012 Honda PCX125. But before both scooters I had a 2005 Yamaha FZ6. Then a 2007 Triumph Daytona 675. While both bikes were great and I loved my time on them. The scooters were just easier and safer to have fun on. 
    • Do you mean the PRR M1?  They were absolute beasts. Not purdy, but all muscle. Even when diesels were coming online, the heaviest trains were still given to the M1. One M1b has been saved and is in storage, though it will never run again.    The tender from another M1 has been saved and will be the tender for the new PRR T-1 5550 that is being constructed by the T-1 Trust
