Thanks Indianclimber. I found your other thread with the same Toytota conversion after I posted on this thread. I emailed gtrv to see if they'd just sell me the pop-top so I can install it myself.

I'm really impressed with the engineering on the Sienna. Drives good, good mpg, great brakes, excellent safety, tons of room, great seats. I picked it up off Craigslist for $9000 with 66K miles.

I've been looking for a chevy astro cargo van for quite a while now, hard to find good markets for them, especially AWD. But these Elements seem like they may be good as well- for those of you that have an Element- does it have the longevity that comes with most other hondas? Problems? Lots of road noise?
My only concern is that it looks a bit short to build up the bunk/ sleeper in the back.
Plus I like creeper vans with no windows, curtains never keep the light out when you're trying to sleep.

Saw one of these Element poptops in the flesh a couple days ago. Not too impressed myself...there just isn't enough interior length/room to make it as functional as a van.

Getting any pop top added to any rig is WAY pricy though...I just priced out getting one into a non-high top Sprinter. Plan on spending $5-$6.5k...screw that just buy the high top.

Lots of live-aboard rigs around the Ditch right now, which is cool since I'm planning for my next ride (the Sable is past her prime and on the downhill slide) and you can check em out in person.

Spinter is the gold std if you have cash, 27mpg. Lots of Astros and regular Chevy vans about, plenty of Econolines too. Quite a few Previas and other minivans around..none of which seem as good as the Astro/safari from a space/cost perspective.

I'm leaning 140" or 144" Sprinter high top, maybe the 118.
