I have owned Chevys and Ford trucks and cars all my life, never considered anything else. But back in 1990 we bought a Dodge mini van and had it for 4 yrs, it ran flawlessly and was a neat rig. In a moment of insanity I traded it for a Mercury Grand Marquis because I wanted that V8 power, full frame if in an accident, smooth ride, etc. Big mistake for an older couple.....getting in and out was a royal pain.
I finally traded for a Dodge Grand Caravan with the Stow & Go seats. What a great rig! Rides quietly, has enuf power in mountains or wherever, handles nicely and has scads of room and I get 23-24 mpg (and I always push a vehicle kind of hard). And very little repairs. I have a Chevy Tahoe for my vehicle (van is for wife) and the Chev has big v8 power and 4 wheel drive but the van is better in every other category...more fun to drive her van (when she lets me).
Now it"s got 104K and I will trade it in 2 yrs. Ford and Chevy make great trucks, but it"s back to the Dodge or Chrysler van again (if Chrysler is still in business). I no longer have to struggle to get down into and up out of a car anymore as I am done with cars.
The van is very quiet whether the seats are up or down...no difference whatsoever.

But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
