Good solid vehicle

It is a good solid vehicle and handles well. I wish it did not have a sliding side door but other than that I'm pleased.

Love our Express!

For family of 6 -3 of them tall teen boys, this was our only option,after 3 minivans. We have driven our Express since Feb 2006. much comfort and room to stretch out. Ideal vacation vehicle with entertainment options( dvd player and wireless headphones). ~only cons: Back bench seating very bouncy & seatbelts done by the 'conversion' are very constricting for all rear seating. The stock radio/CD player & speakers lacking...but easily upgradable. Great performance, no major issues. We're on 2nd set of tires @ 110k miles.(always Michelins) GREAT EXPERIENCE with OUR VAN! No regrets! Plan on keeping it till wont go no more!

Reliable work-horse

This van takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin'. I wish the average car was made this well. It is built like a rock. Is good to 300k+ miles. And the cost of repairs and maintenance is nothing. Great van, great value.

great!

I have been driving Chevy vans for over 40 years. Have had no problems with them except for the usual maintenance. Bought a new Express 1500AWD five years ago. No problems at all. No leaks of any kind either. Those folks with all those problems must be very hard on vehicles and would ruin any kind. The front tires do tend to wear more than my previous van because they are always pulling 35%. Love the all wheel drive performance in loose sand. My only gripe is a fancy stereo/cd model is not available for vans like they option for the pickups.

Awesome van for trips !!

Much more comfortable than a minivan, a lot more cargo room and good gas mileage for 8 cylinder, almost 20 miles per gallon on Highway.

Worst Vehicle I've owned

This is the worst vehicle that i ever owned. Ever since i bought it, i've had bad tie rods,hose leaks,brake failures and really bad fuel mileage,about 10 miles to the gallon.I also replaced the tires 3 times with 2 years.
