First... THANKS TO EDMUNDS!! i was ready to buy another car until i found all the credible reviews! now heres my 2 scents, hyuk hyuk. too many great things about my trusty aerostar. i bought it in 2003 with 50000 miles. Since then not one major problem. replaced the usual items that wear out as normal, like starter, battery, temp sensor, tires, therostat, radiator, bushings.... all normal. Nearly all easy for me to fix at home. still passes calif smog always with no fix or repeat. I do need 3 elbows or a lift to change plus, etc, but i leave all engine maintenance to mechanic. Possible work soon... only now do i see occasional shift hesitation putting in reverse. and coolant needs topping off once a month. much rather rebuild engine and trans eventually than trade it. plus gladly spend 1000 to paint and re upolster from sitting outside for years. just put set of 14" white walls on it for 450 total. Now looks like a classic! fyi, i usually have both seats down and can load most anything easily. if you find one of these, buy it!

Purchased my Aerostar at a GSA Public Auction July 2002 for $4,500. It has a new 6 cylinder engine and the body and inside were perfect. It has given me lots of pleasure as I like to sit up high and enjoy the view. If I fold down or take out the back seats, it will take 4x8 sheets of plywood and more.

I owned three Caravans before giving Ford's ugly duckling a try. May be the best overall vehicle I have ever owned. Practical. Comfortable. Problem free. A great value. Onof of those cars that comes along every now and then (Like the VW Bug) that's not flashy or fast, but you just get hooked on. I too would be first in line to buy another one if Ford were still makeing them. As such, I'll hold on to the one I've got as long as I can.

Other than a thermostat replacement, new brakes, and tires, this van has been trouble free for me for over 5 years.
