Not much information had to drag that part out &nbsp;<img src="/images/boards/smilies/crazy.gif" alt="" width="24" height="24" align="absmiddle" border="0" /><img src="/images/boards/smilies/crazy.gif" alt="" width="28" height="28" align="absmiddle" border="0" /><img src="/images/boards/smilies/crazy.gif" alt="" width="27" height="27" align="absmiddle" border="0" />&nbsp;She is going to take pictures later.

Hi She....<br />I have a friend who owns a 1996 Doge ram conversion van with a fuel injected 318 V8 and a two speed rear axle....(I don't know much about the rear axle in his) but he has a button on the dash that he pushes for highway travel and he claims 20 mpg with it...not so good for town travel of course....<br />He is really happy with it and I have sat and laid down on his convertable rear seat/bed set up and it is very comfy...he likes it so much he is leaving it just like it is...<br /><br />Good luck...sounds like a good price<br />Bri

The way I look at it is this. The longer it takes the more money I save for a better one. I am not really looking for my dream van...that will come later. This is my practice van LOL Good Luck Aunt Meg <img src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" alt="" align="absmiddle" border="0" />&nbsp;

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: small;">Hi Aunt Meg <img src="/images/boards/smilies/wave.gif" alt="" align="absmiddle" border="0" />,<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The only things that I would consider when purchasing a mid-90's Dodge would be that most of them will probably need a new fuel, and a new transmission at about 150,000 miles approx. I have had numerous Dodges( I love them!) and when I am considering purchasing one I always factor in the expense of a pump($700-900) installed, and a transmission (1200-1500) installed, approx. costs(depending on the shop) Most Dodge engines are good for at least 250,000 miles&nbsp;and up, depending on previous maintenance done. Every brand of vehicle has it's good/bad sides to them(there all evil)<img src="/images/boards/smilies/wink.gif" alt="" align="absmiddle" border="0" /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Hoped this helps!!<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Randy</span>

Thats good to know but its funny so far every van I've looked at so far got a newer tranny already. This last one I don't know as I never looked at it. But the one before it was a 1990 e150 van. It it got replaced in 2006. The van before it did too.
