I'm amazed that this vehicle is still running. It has 310,000 miles on it! My grandfather purchased it for me at a used vehicle auction. He tuned it up with new breaks, belts, etc., and it's been running great for the last 14 months. It had 300,000 miles on it already when I started driving it, so I've put 10,000 on it in my time driving it. I have never broken down. The only maintenance I've needed to do is change the brakes. Some problems I am having are the check engine light comes on and won't stay off. I was told at an auto garage that it's just a little leak or something somewhere. It has passed inspection. The other problem I've been having is with the power steering. When it's cold out and I first start the vehicle and reverse out of the parking spot, the power steering squeals... (more)
Story
I drove this vehicle from Virginia to West Virginia, a four-hour drive, to pick up my family's puppy! This was my first long trip, and I was worried about how it would go on the long drive, there and back, and on the highway. But everything went great! There were no problems that I've had with other vehicles in the past, such as overheating and radiator problems. Our puppy, Annabelle, stayed i... (more)
Pros
I like that all of the seats in the back fold down completely, leaving a lot of room for when I need to move large items. There are neat little cubbies in the very back that my kids can store things in.
Cons
There is not enough space in the trunk of the vehicle when the seats are being used, and I can't fold them down. Strollers don't fit well, and I don't have enough space for groceries unless the trunk is completely empty. It's hard to clean/vacuum thoroughly. There are really tough to reach places between and under the seats in the very back.

I really enjoy this van. It's long lasting. We have over 170,000 miles on it, and it's still in great shape. It's built really well to last a long time. This one also has a lot of bonus features that I find very needed with little kids. The first is that on the middle row you can change the seats so they are right next to each other or so that there is a gap and they would be captains chairs. Secondly the back seats fold flat and store which gives a lot of flexibility on moving things. You are able to fit a several sheetrock sheets and close the truck. If the back seats are up the truck is really deep, which is really great for groceries or for trips. This van also has a DVD player which is great for long car trips. This van has all-wheel drive which is great in the winter. Not very ma... (more)
Story
My friend and her kids all piled into the van and we were able to go shopping at thrift stores.
Pros
My favorite part is the DVD player. The audio runs through the car stereo, which makes it able to be loud enough.
Cons
The middle seats do not fold flat, and if you needed to transport something really big, you would have to entirely take the middle seats out. This is due to the AWD feature.
