My Venture is a great van. We have had a few issues regarding the air conditioning and the fuel pump, but I am almost positive it is because we used the vehicle while living in Mexico for a year, which put both the air conditioning and the fuel pump under higher than usual strain. Music is really important to me, and I love the sound system. Nothing fancy, but the sound quality is great. We also used this vehicle while I worked in an orphanage. We have piled tons of kids in, and the van has been through quite a beating. It's really easy to clean inside and out. It's really roomy inside as well. We were able to move all of our possessions back to the united states without needing a trailer. We have had an issue with a tire, but I am pretty sure it is not a problem with the vehicle per say, but with the tire we put on it. The roads in Mexico where we lived are TOUGH, with tons of potholes and speed bumps. Not any car/truck/van would be able to withstand the beating we gave our venture. Even with all the miles we have on it, it rides great. I can't say it has been my favorite vehicle, and we have had some problems, but our Venture has been reliable and has made some really long trips. At a good price, I would buy another one.

The van is a little beat up. It need suspension work, has some rust along the bottom edges of the exterior body, and it has few tears on the interior material lining the ceiling. Some of the interior plastic parts are falling off, and the rear external door handle is broken off. Besides that, the engine still runs great and it has been reliable for the 50 mile daily round trip. Most of the damage is cosmetic, so the car still runs fine without needing the repairs.

The quality of this van is unmatched! I purchased this vehicle as the primary form of transportation for my 6 year old stepdaughter. She is confined to a wheelchair and uses a special car seat until we purchase a handicap accessible van. This is the perfect vehicle to last us for years! The back bench seat easily folds down to accommodate an empty wheelchair and still has plenty of space for an entire month of groceries! Smooth, reliable ride with heat/AC controls for both the front and rear. The open spaces allows easy movement inside and outside of the vehicle and the two captain's chairs are easily folded or removed to make more space. The interior has both front and back lights that automatically turn on when you turn the vehicle off. The carpeting is easy to clean as well. We get approximately 500 miles to the tank and the interior dashboard shows the temperature and estimated fuel mileage. Our Chevy venture has not let us down! The radio has controls in both front and back and very clear audio regardless of where you are sitting. We have also used this vehicle as a taxi service and frequently get compliments on the smooth ride!
