Advice: want the best minivan? BUY A ASTRO
Read This. We own 15 Astros at this point and have had nothing but sucsess with them. The gentleman from Alaska that gave a bad review either has been out in the cold too long or has never driven any other minivan. THe Astro has a large chasie that gives it a very stable ride with the option of towing to go along with it. We have Astros with over 350,000 miles that dont even burn any oil.Pros: rear wheel drive
Cons: fuel mileage
Advice: keep vehicle maintained
Bought used with 58000 miles. Did a complete 60,000 mile service plus changed shocks and front and rear brakes. Changed to Mobil 1 15w50 synthetic motor oil.; Have had no problems except for squeaks from rear seats on rough roads. You can't beat this van for the price. Has excellent performance, features, and reliability.Pros: only mini van that could tow my boat
Cons: more power
Advice: none buy it you like it
We like are astro, the room inside is the plus factor. we had a dodge durango and it was falling apart.the astro actually towes my boat better. less sway.
