Well shes finally gone...

[Yooformula]

They took my nuts and gave me a fu(king minivan :( I had to trade in my Durango and get a minivan. With the 3rd childseat, we could barely get in/out and the $650 a month in gas was killing me. Dodge City gave me a great deal though and seeing 27mpg instead of 16mpg was a welcoming site. My wife is pissed though, she hates it :devil I tried to say look at the bright side but she's not buying it.....something about me still having my toy and her getting the crappy deal :rolf

No thats quite alright, I'll put my Steelers sticker on the back thanks. We'll get back into something we WANT after Chase is about 3. As long as we need 2 infant seats and a stroller, the minivan will help out just fine. ;)

Not a whole better than what I got already Chris. It was a good deal, the mileage wasnt that great but were not keeping it long so its all good.

Great fuel milage, turbocharged, can haul motors/tranies without
worry of rain, can haul 6 guys to the drag expo or to road trips
in Green bay, cops dont bother you while you smoke Acura's!

Life aint over bud, vans are so usefull you may grow used to it:)

[Yooformula]

I wouldnt mind owning a turbo van, thatd be fun as hell.

[Slow Joe]

Then make it a turbo minivan... lol

[GRNDNL]

We can Flame the B!tch for you........ :fire

[srt4eh]

heh......have any turbo caravans for sale?

[Teufelhunden]

What did you end up getting Yoo?

[Russ Jerome]

What did you end up getting Yoo?

Ya what did you get? If it runs on fossil fuel it is a candidate
for forced induction! Turbo's are very simple little animals, give
it fuel linier to its pressure rate and limit it to what the bottom
end can handle. A simple switch places boost in "valet" mode
so wife wont freak :)

[Yooformula]

I was trying to avoid posting it but its a grand caravan..:ducks and hides:

[Russ Jerome]

3.3 we will guess, 3.8 optional.
2.4 can recieve SRT4 motor swap.

Ok hears the neat part, the factory already gave us a crossover
pipe on exhaust! People have been turboing these motors for years!
Puts turbo right on top of trans.

By the way my wifes van is a 99 Grand fully optioned less cold in
winter leather seats ;) FL every x-mas thru new years, 6 of us and
a LOT of luggage.

[Yooformula]

Sadly mine is a 3.8l so no E85 use either fockers.

WHOO HOO 4000th post!

[Teufelhunden]

Stow N Go rules!! :goof :thumbsup

I'm in the same boat(van)

[Russ Jerome]

Take it easy on icey roads, the torque of the 3.8 will send
the diff pin thru case if wheels find traction while spinning.

There are $7 diff pin retainers at dealer that are life savers,
even if stupid roll pin shears the pin stays in carrier. ez install
and PRICELESS!

If you doubt me call a trans shop, ask about a trans swap and
their first reply will be "Is case good" :)

[Yooformula]

Russ, I dont doubt you for a second!! If the dealer thinks that I will pay a cent for the repair WHEN I crack that pin, they are out of the friggin minds....lol

MS, hells yeah the stow n go rules!! I can fit a ton of more sh|t....which by the way we know have since we have the room.

Hey, you do what you have to do.
