Was a VERY RELIABLE mini van! WAS VERY LOVED!

This vehicle was TOTALLY decked out and had EVERYTHING! Very practice for its day. Even though there are better newer features in today's vans, it still was awesome in 2007 when I purchased it.

2005 Monterey Luxury

Perfect car. Have had it for 6 1/2 years only had to put tires and brakes on it. Mom has Parkinsons Disease this car makes it very easy for her to enter and exit the car either the front seat or the middle seats. Very easy car to drive. Love the way it handles especially after the Goodyear tires wore out and I put new Hankook tires on it.
