Just got home with this piece. A 1997 Pontiac TranSport. My grandfather isn't in shape to drive much anymore and he figured with the family size I have, I would do well with this. It's power EVERYTHING, down to the back pop windows, lolol. Cool thing is that it's paid for. And it's in perfect shape as they believed in babying a vehicle. Here we go. Later, QD.

Dammit! I just realized I used the wrong "edition." It's supposed to "addition." Later, QD.

I forget, what is the year cutoff for emissions? Later, QD.

I believe it's 15 yrs now, but I'm not sure either. I don't have to worry about emissions. Walton Co. FTW!!!

Be sure to flush the coolant out every 30k miles with the addition of the coolant pelets or the lower intake gasket will begin to leak. It's a bit expensive to repair. Good deal on the van :goodjob:

Well it's all through inheritance in a sense. My grandmother passed away in late Feb. and she was the only reason my grandfather was able to live here. Because of the high staircase, my grandfather wasn't able to live here alone. He moved to my Mom's house and called me and asked if I wanted this house. Now he doesn't drive so much and he figured we'd put good use to the van. My sister and I (literally) grew up with them, in this same house, so they are (kind of) more than just grandparents. Later, QD.

I feel you on that man. My wifes father passed away 6 months ago, and we inherited a lot of his stuff (car, condo, etc.) A lot of people are saying were lucky, :screwy:. But I would gladly get rid of all that stuff to have him back for my wifes sake. :( People are stupid. Nice van though. :D
