I purchased this van at 180,000 miles and it is still going strong. I've been driving it for two-years and have only needed regular maintenance (oil change, tires, brakes). This van had several automated features (automatic doors, windows, power locks, inter-changeable dashboard display) that I have not had with any previous car. It is a great family-vehicle.

We just bought our Uplander a year and a half ago and it has 120,000 miles. We love how great the gas mileage is, averaging almost 19 mpg in a van is amazing!! It drives very smooth, I can feel the shift from 1st gear to second gear but its not bad. The fit and finish is excellent, I was surprised. The seats seem to stain easy. Everything works great in it, the a/c seems kind of under powered but not too bad. It rides very comfortably, its not mushy and not like a buckboard. I am hoping to get 150,000 miles out of it. Over all I love it!! I'm am NOT a Chevy fan...But GO CHEVY!!!

The Chevy Up lander was probably one of the worst mini vans ever built. Although it ran fine the first two years by the third year it started to break down. The transmission went and had to be replaced. It started to make rattling noises and the bearing began to leak which also had to be replaced. The turning radius was awful. Although I liked the room and color (it was red) it was just a really bad car. Although it had a v6 engine it drank gas like crazy and accelerated very slowly. I like the fact that it was an American made car but didn't realize the quality could ever be so bad.
