    Perfect for getting mom around

    With the lift installed this is just what we needed to get mom around in her wheelchair. The V6 performed well enough as we are not towing anything. Never had a mechanical problem with the van. We were lucky to get a 2003 because models produced after this year all had paint flake off. This has been a great vehicle for our needs.

    More room for the money

    This van so far suits me and my family well for the money we gave up a little comfort as far as luxury goes but the ride is smooth and the kids love the space. We love the double doors on both sides and the van runs great and not too bad at all on gas.

    Disappointed in a Newer Van

    I bought a newer vehicle for the saftey reason of my family. Occasionally the front end shifts from left to right like a violent shimmy. To the point that you feel like you are going to end up in a ditch. Machanics (even the dealership) can't tell me why this is happening. What is puzzling, is that it doesn't happen every time you brake. Just recently I found out that there is a design flaw in the air conditioning compressor and I may need to spend $1000.00 every other year to keep replacing it. (the defrost won't even work without this compressor). Basically, I bought a three year old vehicle that acts worse, at times, than a 20 year old vehicle.
