Hi She, OK, I'm going to be the skeptic here. With 163 thousand miles on the odometer, and he says it needs a radiator flush &amp; brakes, I'd be careful. It sounds like it's been rode hard and put away wet. Ask to see service records, including oil changes, transmission services, etc. If he doesn't have any service records, I would consider taking a pass on it. The transmission may also be getting to fail with those miles on it. <br />PS, The bumper to body alignment is definitely off. As pointed out in an earlier post, look for frame damage too. <img src="/images/boards/smilies/sneaky.gif" /><br />-Bruce
 
one more quick item. &nbsp;the worst thing for an automatic trans with allot of miles is to sit and not be driven.&nbsp; i have seen plenty that were fine but then sat for a while and when put back into use gave up the ghost rather quickly.&nbsp; highdesertranger
 
Well well well look where this post went to LOL&nbsp;<img src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" /><br />Bad news and boy am I pissed! One of our workers opened his big mouth and the aftermath was how we get paid. We knew it would happen soon but when the business did better. So for now no van. It will happen just not happen now. <br />Its not that i would lose a large amount of money being paid different,its the insecurity I feel toward being paid like that. So I have to wait and make SURE it will work out and I am sure it will. Instead of getting paid once a week I get paid everyday...something I dont like. So I made a plan how much go for my rent now my one bill(yeah one bill!!)and money for the van. Instead next month it might be the one after. Life goes on. Thanks for all your help...&nbsp;appreciated!
 
So sorry, She. &nbsp;I hope that they didn't mess with your rate too much. &nbsp;One thing is for sure, they won't pay you more if they don't have to. &nbsp;Good luck getting it all figured out. &nbsp;At least you are working for now!<br /><br />The right van will come along and happen in it's right time!<br /><br />M.A.
 
(quote removed) Thanks Angeli I think I may go ahead and see if I can get it. LOL I was just so shocked about what happened. I am a little calmer today. I'll call Monday and see if it still&nbsp;available. If not there are other fishy vans in the parking lot. I am going to ask 1200 and see what he says. Not 700!!!!
 
<strong>She</strong> - I guess I helped hijack the heck out of your thread. &nbsp;Sorry 'bout that!<br /><br />-- &nbsp;Kevin
