Hi Guys,

I had lunch with a friend today and we just hung out for awhile, it was nice. After she left I jumped on Craigs List for the first time today and low and behold, there it was (que the angels singing). THE van I have been searching for. Here are a few of the details for your opinions:

Sorry don't know how to change the font size below :( he is asking $3,900 has 113k miles. As with my luck though, it is in Prescott Valley, Az.  Not sure if it is appropriate for me to ask for a ride from Vegas, but don't know how else to get there and I really feel it is the right one. Already called and spoke to owner and he is a Vandwelling Video fan! Anyway told him I would call again tomorrow. He was suprised I would come all the way from Vegas, but hey if it's right, it's right!

Thanks for listening!

This van runs great and I just returned from a 2,661 mile road trip with no issues. 2,661 miles and it averaged 20 mpg. This is a one owner vehicle that I ordered and purchased new in November of 2000 and I have the original paperwork. Fresh oil change appx 2,700 miles ago. New battery. New front brakes & rotors, rear brakes just serviced and adjusted, complete brake system flushed, new tires and front end alignment appx 4,000 miles ago. I have receipts for this work and the battery. New front wipers. fuel pump, radiator, and serpentine belt has been replaced. Distributer cap and rotor have been replaced. All system fluids have been replaced at least twice. Never in an accident. The windshield has a few dings but nothing major.

 I try to change oil every 3,000 miles, so 2,700 mile ago is not exactly fresh. Other than that, the van sounds pretty good. let us know what you do.
 
You don't choose the van... the van chooses you
 
Yeah it looks good in the pictures.  I can't believe all the hi-top vans there.  If you fly down there you should be able to find a van.
 
TW: Just found the van very late last night,  ( 1 hour after it was posted) so no not yet.

Close: V6, 4.3 L

Ballenxj : I left off some of the bells and whistles, but don't really care about leather seats!

Thank you all, will keep you posted!
