Please Die, I wan't a newer one!

1993 Chevrolet Astro CL 3dr Ext Minivan
Bought because kids were fighting in car and needed more cargo space. Will tow anything, have taken seats out and put a cord of firewood, 30 sheets of plywood, dirtbikes, snowblower, appliances, you name it for the cottage. Will get 25 mpg at 60mph, one set of tires, brakes, shocks, and a muffler in 70,000 miles. Started outright dying on me 3 years ago, (got very excited) but only … turned out to be a $11 pulse generator in the distributor. Sounds like a stagecoach on rough roads. I am trying to kill it by not changing the oil, 20,000 miles have gone by, why won't it die? I really wan't to buy a newer AWD model, but this one is worth nothing to trade in.I would buy again in a heartbeat!
Awesome Van!

This is my 2nd Astro both have been great! This one now has 200,000 miles and going strong. Typical minor repairs have been done over the years. Nothing out of the ordinary. Hubby's NEW car has had more repairs in 1yr than mine has had in 5! I get great mileage too on this van. about 24 on the highway 19 in town.
Love my Astro

1990 Chevrolet Astro CL 3dr Minivan AWD
I bought my Astro new off the lot with 40 miles on it. I now have over 221,000
miles on it. I have traveled all over the U.S. in my van, I pull a 1968, 16ft
camper with it, it takes me up to the ski resorts in the winter and drives me
on the beach at the ocean. I love my van. Even if I get something else to
drive I plan to keep my little van.
It's a truck not a Car-a-van

1993 Chevrolet Astro 3dr Minivan
Bought used from Dealer and have never
regretted it. The 93's rattle here and
there and have a stiff truck like ride,
but we wanted and got a solid Chevy
truck, not a wimpy half breed Car-a-
van. When you need the power with the
4.3 it will put you back against the
seat. Great for towing a boat and
utility trailer. This year we changed
the original fuel filter and … battery.
Replaced exhaust once and had new
brakes and shocks 2 years ago. That's
it. Still gets close to 25 mpg on
freeway @ 60 and on cruise. 147,000
miles and going strong. Wouldn't be
surprised to see her top 250 before
it's ready to scrap heap. We love our
Astro!
