Also congratulations on your new MiniVan! Would you share with us which model did you buy/options/color?

I am replacing my 96 Jeep Cherokee 4.0l and am concerned about the lack of power that I have read about. I really love driving my Cherokee but now I need more cargo room and would love a more car like ride.
By the way, one disadvantage of the overhead system is that the screen blocks almost all of the view in the rearview mirror.

I also do not agree with Forbes statement "WORST: Drab design, overwhelming amounts of information"
I think design is pretty good and I wished it was more information LOL

70F in your area anyway? My dad's already got his jetskis out to take to the reservoir, lucky bugger. I've still got my snow blower ready for action, go fig'r.

I, too, was concerned w/screen placement due to my also having a moonroof. I actually measured placement of fact installed screen in MPV w/NO moonroof vs. where it has to be positioned (aft of the moonroof) and it's literally a few inches.
Mine is placed immediately aft of the moonroof and visibility from 2nd row seats is fine (you're not right on top of it).
Hope this info helps.
region (For that matter even Houston)?
If so, what kind of deal you got ?
(All the MPV's I have seen on road look like 01 or
older year models)
I will be in the market later this year (probably
Aug/Sept time frame). Hence the question.
Does anyone know whether color-coded plugs are available to cover the ugly holes in the front bumper where the license plate screws would go? Shouldn't I have gotten them when I bought the car?
Thanks!

Mine went on lickity split once I adjusted the bars around for the different width between my MPV and my Volvo. Took 20 minutes to be ready to rock and roll. My mountain bikes fit up there w/o a problem with the length and I already hauled an extension ladder to the mil's for some spring roof cleanup.

Do not pay more than 300 to 400 over invoice. The dealerships in Houston cook their own invoices tooooooo.......be careful to check the invoice price.......on dealers website, Like QuirkCars.com in MA.

Of course, this is contrary to what 90% of Texans think...
When I turned 16, I took my father's car out one night which didn't have a front plate on it for the 5 years he had it. Within 45 minutes of me leaving the house I was on the side of the road looking for his registration (which he had in his wallet). Needless to say, I got a fix-it ticket for both the license plate and registration.
Another time I was out in my VW van and had stopped in the quickie mart that was on the corner of a known drug dealing street. Just as I pulled out of that street I was pulled over by a zealous young officer who said I had no front plate. After the incident above, I made sure there was one, but I took the officer at his word. After he looked me over and figured that I wasn't a typical pot-head he relaxed a bit. I then asked again if he was sure I didn't have a front plate. He walked around front and said, "Oh, there is one there; sorry for the confusion." He then sent me on my way. @$$#@!&
Since my early 20s I have left the front plate off every vehicle I have had and have never been pulled over for it.

Reason is so they can photograph the front of your car at intersection if you run a red light.
Cameras are located on utility poles at busy intersections for that reason.
BTW, it also matters what you wear. Synthetic fiber will give your more shock than, say, cotton.
Anyway, never thought of selling the van because of that.
