    Great For Family

    We have owned a 2005 LT for 7-years, it has been very reliable, comfortable and seating for 7. Overall one of the most affordable vehicles that I have ever owned. The DVD needs older format version DVD's to work.

    Still Running

    We bought our Uplander new and it serviced my family perfectlyfor years! The kids were not gentle on it and it held up well. We have since bought a new car but I kept my Uplander for trips to the nursery to haul plants and soil. We don’t do much maintenance on it anymore but it continues to run despite several lingering issues. It rarely starts on the first…. or second try but I still love her and it gets me from A to B when I need it to. Come on baby, momma still still needs you!

    Nice Exterior, Cheap Interior, Plain Jane.

    I like the min-van concept, but there are better ones out there. The seats are cheaply made and wear easily. The power doors are not dependable. I like the looks of the Uplander and the 3.5 engine has been a bit under-powered, but is dependable. This mini-van has been an excellent second vehicle as it hauls a lot of items with the seats out. However, the seats are very hard to remove and reinstall.

    Excelent car for the money paid.

    Car, 2007 Chevrolet Uplander is very comfortable, with quiet engine and very smooth ride. It is well designed for passengers and a lot of cargo.

    Nice, simple ride

    Affordable ride for our family of six. Fits the budget at this point in our lives. Has helped us cover 5,000 miles this summer. We enjoy the DVD player, leather, and captain chairs in the middle row.

    Uplander Experience

    I enjoy my 05' Uplander a lot, and my family loves it too. There are 7 of us in all. My Wife and I, and five children. We bought ours fully loaded. It rides like a truck which I enjoy, so if your looking for a car type of ride it's not for you. It's very stylish inside with leather seating, wood grain, chrome, and also extremely roomy. You can just about walk around in it. It is a lovely Crossover. I do suggest all wheel drive, we bought the FWD and that sucks for snowy weather. Cincinnati is a very hilly City though. I love my Chevy 2005 Uplander LS
