hard to beleive you're excited about getting a minivan though....how many kids do you have?

I know it is sad getting exited about a mini-van but have 3 children + one -on- the- way. And being Catholic.....

The Mazda isues were for myself VERY dissapionting...... NEVER thought it would need to see the inside of a garage on many occasions - ONLY when it needed a service.... how wrong I was.

Nothing's wrong with minivans. I've still got my good old 1998 Mercury Villager.

They are well cool.....

It amazes me how some cars just run and run.

At my work we have 2 Toyoya Hiace' one is well barely run in at 14k.. but the other on has 87k .... once warmed up (Diesel) it runs lovely and will top a ton...... while watching for the Police of course...

+ and knowing where the speed camera's are sited!!
However fast... they are VERY light at the back and swing ronud to say hello..... brown pants.

How many exhaust manifolds have you had crack?

My dad has a USDM Toyota Previa ever since the 1990's and currently it has 420,000km on the engine and still running strong. All he ever did to maintain it was to do the usual oil change and the fact that the engine uses a timing chain is also a plus. I think that this car is very solid from my understanding and would definitely recommend it to others. Oh yeah, it is also RWD for anyone who wants to have some fun drifting in a van..lol
