1995 Chevrolet Astro CL
I bought this van to have to move stuff and just have a bigger vehicle. The power and ability of a truck with the versatility of a cargo van AND a passenger van. VERY nice. Helping friends move, anything's possible with this van. Gas mileage is excellent for a V6, especially a van. 19mpg in the city! Never had a reliability problem. The only problem has been flinging a center cap off my rally wheel today. =) Fun to drive, and it's a van!
Works well, few problems
Reliable, roomy, comfortable for kids.Drivers seat a bit small especially left leg room. The main driver, my wife loves it mostly for the great view of the road and the carrying capacity. Dutch doors in the rear nice, however the weatherstripping has to be replaced once every three years. Handling fine for a truck chassis vehicle.
The best van ever!
It has nice performance and very good reliability. Will recomend to everyone.
Recommedation for Astro van
The Astro van has been a great vehicle for our family. I would highly recommend it for anyone with children. Our current van has taken us just over 205,000 miles in 9 years. It has finally served its usefulness and we are shopping for our second Astro van. Our primary issues had been with the rear A/C malfunctioning twice & had to be replaced twice (the extended warranty paid for itself). It has been exceptionally reliable for us through the years. Thank you, Chevrolet.
