Default Is it time to build a 7?
Hello RV7 drivers. Giving serious though to taking on a new project. I think the 7 is going to be the one.

I think that could be said for any Vans machines The 7 sure is popular, only ever flew one once, liked the room compared to my fav design (the 8) & the access to the luggage area was the best. Conventional U/C of course
