Best all around Mini-Van

I'm not sure about the Honda, but i own a Windstar and can tell you: it does decent off road, the back seats are a $*%# to move, it waddles if you turn to much, but cruises just fine, has a huge gas tank (I think its 30-40 gallons) and the dark blue models are nice, i have no experience with other years though (Mine is 1999) and the heater has emotional issues, and the transmission is being weird. just my 2 cents.

Also, if you are 6'0" or taller, you will probably hit your head on the back door. it should really go up another 3 inches. ouch.
 
Selling at 100K is not an option for me. I keep vehicles until they fall apart. I need something that can do around 350K before it gives up the ghost. And from my experience chrysler products start to crap the bed around 200K.


I used to drive a Chevy Uplander as a taxi.I got 340K mi. on it before the engine finally quit.It needed a rebuilt transmission at around 150K IIRC.I've driven a few different mini-vans(Ford,Dodge,Honda) & this one is the best in my experience.
 
My wife has driven a 2003 Sienna for almost 5 years now. Very trouble free. Built on a Camry Chassis and shares the same 6 cyl engine as well. Not as spiffy as the Honda but not as pricey either. Recommended.
 
My mom has had pretty good luck with her chevy venture van. We didnt pay too much for it either.
