    New/used. Not new/new.

    Looking for a newer van too. I realized last week that all my crap is getting old and shouldn't be trusted. Too bad too, that van, bought with 107,000 miles on it, is about to turn 200,000. During the time I have owned it (7 years) I have gone through two sets of tires, one radiator, one waterpump, one AC condensor, brake pads, plus a tune up. And many thousands of gallons of gas... Not too shabby. Straight clean body too. The only thing I'm concerned about going tits up on it is the transmission, although it has given no indication of failing yet. Knock on wood. Rear main seal is starting to weep a bit too. Maybe I'll just replace the tranny and main when it comes due and keep making money with it. It would make a good apprentice van someday.

    You just need to invite some people to go play on the track with you.

    Better to ask what I have not done.
    When would you want to do this? I wouldn't mind helping you out. Just need to see when we have a matching time to do so. Maybe during one of our mod days?
