I love that at the age, this vehicle still runs so well. We have not had any breakdowns at all. The mileage is currently around 95,000 miles. It runs great. The overhead DVD player did break and sways back and forth. The van fits our family and all of the functions are easy to use. We buy a lot of furniture, and I love that I can lay the back seats down flat to fit everything in it. Surprisingly, it does pretty well on gas. I drive around a lot in the city and still only fill up once, maybe twice per month.
Story
We had this vehicle when we were stationed in Korea. This van took us all over the country site seeing and never failed us. We have four kids and were able to load all of us and luggage in it to travel around.
Pros
Honestly, I have loved that the fuel economy on this vehicle has actually been so great. The mechanical part of the vehicle has been great also. We haven't had to have any major repairs on it.
Cons
I'd say that the biggest con would be trying to fit a large car seat in the captain seat behind the driver seat. That is the most convenient spot for me, but it is a tight fit. Also, the DVD player did not work very well and eventually the hinge broke. This caused it to kind of dangle. It moves around a lot and we had to tape it closed.

This minivan is your typical minivan. I bought this van used at 180,000 miles. So far, it has done well without any major problems except normal wear and tear (breaks and tires). The interior is large and roomy. Can fit 7 people and their belongings comfortably. The 3rd row seating can fold down for extra cargo room. The additional feature that we have is the DVD player which has been great for longer car trips to keep the passengers occupied. They also can control their own heating and cooling. I have found the fuel economy to be great considering it is a mini van. The exterior styling is ok. I am not fond of the color of mine (blue). It is sleek and has room on top of the luggage racks to tie down larger items.
Story
we are heavily involved with our local robotics team and we carpool with a lot of the members a lot with this van.
Pros
Favorite feature is the DVD player and passenger control of their heating and cooling.
Cons
No roll down windows on the sliding doors.
