This twin to the Nissan Quest is really a good vehicle. I bought it with 101,000 miles on it. I needed to have the trans rebuilt right after I bought it (went from 1st to 4th gear) cost a lot ($1800) to be rebuilt,but it has been good since. It really is quick. I went from an Audi A41.8t Quattro 5 speed to this. It has lots of power, antilock brakes work great. Got totaled, air bags did not deploy, but I didn't get hurt. I am buying a used 99 or 2000. I like the cargo/people space that it has to offer. Looks like a soccer Mom's car, but I'm now a Grandpa..LOL.I feel it is a good safe, reliable car. Lots of power and everybody is comfortable in it!! Rear A/c heat control did break.

This van has been one of the best purchases yet. In three years of owning this vehicle we put over 70k on it and the only major repair was new ball joints ($500) and ac compressor ($450). I would recommend this vehicle to anyone starting a family. Decent gas mileage for a "mini van" there is just enough room for my wife and I, along with our three children ages 7,5 and 3.

Very family friendly car. Easy to move around in. Low maintenance except for oxygen sensor, which has to be replaced every two years. Integrated child safety seats very safe and convienient.

I bought this van used at 80,000 KM and have put on 5000ks already, it was well worth the 10 grand and it has nothing wrong at all with it. The audio system could use some work, and the back speakers are almost impossible to change, but the rear sliding seat it perfect for my families lifesytle of allways being on the move.
