New van

Post by H2OJoe »

I’m not a new member but do have a new van. 1997 Astro LS AWD, 160k miles. Cherry😊. This summer it will be built for the rigors of Baja. Should never have sold the last one.😔

Amazing. Looks really clean, Joe, and still has many miles in it.

Yea that looks great for a '97 but I suppose any of those that are still around have been cared for their entire lives. Hopefully the new ones hold up as well!

Thanks. Hope so. My 2001 had 289k miles on it when I sold it. Original engine and transmission and still running strong.
