Not sure how many owners I think we're the 2nd owners, but we had it for about 3 years. It's a short van, not extended, so it fits in the garage nicely even with the rear door open and it doesn't feel as heavy as it's extended siblings.

Bads: Right front passenger tire clicks sometimes when turning, maybe ball joint or bushing? ABS and TCS acts up sometimes, rear windsheild wiper doesn't work, cracked windsheild.

I need a cargo hauler lol....
Do the back seats come out easy? Can you get a piece of plywood in there (full sheet 4x8)

I dont know shit about minivans.... is it front wheel drive? Does the clicking sound like it may be a CV joint if it is?

Does the engine tick or knock when first started in the morning at all?

Thanks!

Engine runs very smooth and doesn't knock, even in mornings with cold starts. It's front wheel drive and has the modular seating as you can see in the pics and they all 5 of them come out very easily and was one of the features that I liked the most when hauling my tools around. A 4x8 sheet of plywood slides in easily, but sticks out about a foot because it's a short body and not long, but it does have a roof rack too.

For the clicking, I don't believe it's the cv boot cause it's not a "constant" click when turning. It's just one click and you can feel it so I think it's got something to do with the control arm or bushings?? I'm not a mechanic so I really don't know.

Again it's OBO and I'm really reasonable if the problem turns out to be bigger then I think, but do keep in mind it's priced pretty cheap too.
