Never Want Any Other Vehicle

Unfortunately, it can't last forever. Now that the GMC Safari is no longer I'll have to find something else. This is the best vehicle that I've ever had. My parents had a GMC Safari years before I purchased mine. I drove it once and wanted one of my own. It took a while but it happened in 2005. Since I got this van it has been to the east coast, as far south as the South Banks of NC, north to Toledo, Ontario...cross country to the west, Whidbey Island, the San Juan Islands, Oregon...cross country back to Pennsylvania. I could get behind the wheel on any day and know that I was going to get where I was going. It has been more than reliable. 14 years old and I would rather get this van repaired than buy something else. Sadly, I will have to. Guess I will have to change to the Savanna...it better live up to the Safari.

Good travel vehicle

Comfortable for long trips, smooth ride, wide vision area, plenty of leg room, good for family or couple with lots of luggage. Good engine power for mountains, handles the windy coastal highways with ease. Better gas mileage than most SUVs with more seating and cargo space. Both bench seats fold down for moving large items. Easy entry into adjustable third seat and second seat from side door. Dutch doors allow for window or full entry into back storage area. Plenty of drink holders and side storage for passengers. Rear air effective for cooling the interior evenly. Quality upholstery, withstands wear and cleans easily.
