I needs a little work but that's OK i will get rid out in this winder for a newer minivan i might get a freestar,or a Chrysler town and country."

"Bought this van 6 years ago. Only have had one major issue (Fuel pump). Otherwise always ready to go. Its funny but it has become a member of the family. Finally did just get a newer vehicle. Another Ford of course! The only thing I wish was better is the mpg. Otherwise it has always been there for me! It does lock itself and the interior lights did stay on (till we took the bulbs out!, but I have found out that is common in these vans."
