1995 Chevrolet Astro 2 Dr LT 4WD Passenger Van Extended
Review
Bought the Luxury Touring addition with all the extras and have been very glad we did. The astro appealed to us because it offered better cargo space, better payload, and had better ground clearance. Most minivans just cant do what an astro can. We have had great luck 185,000 miles and only an alternator and window motor. and brakes and tires of course. The all wheel drive works great in all conditions. The one thing you have to watch for with these is the dutch doors. We have also bought a 97 and they both sucked water under the carpet via the plastic thresh hold. But the only way you know is by reaching under the carpet because there's a rubber backing keeping the water from coming through.
Favorite Features
Love the seats found in the Luxury Touring addition. The other models don't have these. Also love my digital instrumentation and rear heat/air.
Suggested Improvements
There is little to no foot room on the front passenger side. Fix the rear doors so they don't suck water and cause mildew problems.
A great car, if you can handle the mpg

Review
I can't say enough about how good this van has been for me. It has an engine that is snappier than V-8s,when it's only a V-6. At 16-18 mpg it's not very economical, but very good for a van and excellent for the performance it delivers. It has hauled kids, motorcycles, lumber, brush, furniture, rocks and has always, always handled the load with competence, and cleaned up very well afterward. The rear bench seats can be removed in under 3 minutes bu 1 person, leaving enough floor space for an 4x8 sheet of plywood, and using the between-the- seat space I've gotten 11.5-foot things in there. If you can handle the mpg, get this van!
Favorite Features
Snappy, friendly engine. Ease of maintenance. Little need for repairs with regular ordinary maintenance (oil/air changes, etc.).

The motor and transmission are rock solid, everything else has broken and had to be fixed, I mean everything- 4 alternators, radiator, rear end, starter, ac blower motor, electric window motors (both), thermostat, waterpump, ac compressor, and about 12 more things that I have forgotten, I have never had a car that was this crappy- but does have a good motor and trans. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, the worst front end on any vehicle ever made it eats idler arms and tie rod ends. Other than that it is ok.
Favorite Features
Does pull my boat just fine and I like the space for my tools that I haul securely.
Suggested Improvements
Get the gas mileage up and you got a winner. I do from 15-19 and its a 2 wheel drive.
Great van!

Review
Very dependable van! Motor and transmission strong no problems. We have driven this van to California, Colorado and Missouri with no problems. Would drive it anywhere. Only flaws I would say would be the lack of front passenger leg room and door handles (have 2 Astro's and replaced handles on both of them) Our one van has 186000 miles on it and still runs great! Highly recommend this vehicle!
Favorite Features
Dependability, low maintenance, and seat comfort.
Suggested Improvements
More front leg room. Easier access to the back bench seat.
