    Minivans: How much does the brand matter?

    I apologize to all that own one in advance. I consider them all 'throw away' vechicles. I agree, the Toyota and Honda would be the best of the lot. If you have to get one, get the base model. Less crap to break. Don't worry to much about it retaining its value. They are worthless when the...

    Quest continues. Thoughts on this conversion van???

    Always check these old vans for cracks around the steering gearbox, where it mounts on the frame or make sure your mechanic does. Any frame rust or stress crack will be expensive to repair. Thats the biggest overlooked problem I seen on old van's. I seen this on all types of vans and JB weld...

    Car trailer

I personally will more then likely never use it. I just need a project and this seem to be like a fun challenging one. The kids would...

    Car trailer

    Engine is blown, I think a couple of grand is what they go for in running condition. I been looking at some rental U-haul trailers and it should be okay. I am going to give it a shot.

    Car trailer

    I can get a 2003 ford focus like this one for $200.00 .Its got a blown engine and slight damage to the right front side and hood. My idea was  to remove the  front wheel drive train and convert it into a teardrop type trailer. I would cut it off at the bottom of windshield even with the...

    How dangerous without venting batteries?

    Why not mount them under the van? Any acid that boils over will eat up your floor. The vapors are definetly not good for you and smell like rotten eggs.

    Quest continues. Thoughts on this conversion van???

    I like it, and it seems like the PO kept up the maintence on it. What engine? Look at it this way, you can buy a cheaper one and add all the new stuff on this one and you will come out about the same.

    Phoenix/Mesa Az. Free Farmers market/can goods

    I could not edit this part: Vans are okay and small class B's. Big Rv's - park at the ***safeway to the west, not in the Church parking lot.*** Safeway is to the EAST of the church, right next door, not the WEST.
