The most dependabel car I've ever owned is a van. I work as a courier so a van is great for hauling stuff. My 2000 Astro has gone over 500,000 miles and my son now owns it. The engine is the same but the transmission had to be replaced at 250,000. Other than that it has had little more than the basic kind of repairs you have to do with any car.

The passenger van, like mine, has room for 6 adults and still has a little room for some cargo. Wth the seats out I have had 1750 pounds of cargo in it with no trouble. The gas mileage isn't the greatest but I added The Tornado and got the MPG up to 19 combined city and highway.

If they still made the Astro I would go back and buy one tomorrow. It's that good.
