love my van

Even though this van has given me quite a few minor mechanical glitches, moaning power steering, brakes, radiator, thermostat, shocks, oil leaks etc, I am a mechanic and have repaired them all myself at little cost and surprising ease considering the relative inaccessibility of the engine. I cannot imagine being without this vehicle. It carries an amazing amount of stuff plus room for my kids and associated toys, bikes etc. Power with the 4.0l is exceptional and the ride/seats are fantastic. gas mileage is OK. I normally drive it 200-300 kilometers a week and have put on 50,000 kilometers since I bought it 2 yrs ago @ average speed 120 kilometers/hr. If you are not able to do regular wear and tear maintenance on this vehicle it could probably be expensive ( tuneups offered at $49.95 most vehicles will cost you $129.95 on this one(fine print))
