What Owners are Saying About the 1998 Ford Windstar Cargo

"winnie"

"I own a 1998 green Ford Windstar gl, iT has been a lifesaver i bought it for almost 3 grand,2years ago, i was surprised at the room and power,and handling even in snow. it has i loved it,and i like that it sits high,but is easy to get in and out of. 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."

"Loved it had it for 11 years."

"The van lasted me the longest that I had ever had a vehicle. Bought it in 2003, and I still have it. It has been the best van that I have ever had. It did need some power steering line repair work, and the throttle got stuck once and the dealership cleaned it and it has worked fine since. Finally had to replace the transmission after 150000 miles."

"Amazing Vehicle I love it!"

"I've owned this vehicle for over a year now & it is my first car and I really love this vehicle it's a very dependable car. I live deep in the mountains so we get lots of snow & as long as I have good snow tires this vehicle does fine in the snow. This vehicle also does good going up & down the mountain & never overheats! I once was coming up a large mountain road & the car obviously was low on Transmission Fluid but it kept going fine until I got home and I added plenty of tranny oil & it was fine. This car I have probably abused a lot with offroading adventures and it does perfectly fine. I heavily recommend this car to anyone."
