I purchased this van a few months back with the intentions of adding it to my business. However, plans changed and I no longer need it. Ive had several Astro Vans in the past and this is by far the cleanest I have ever owned. The van was formerly used at a local police department. It was well maintained by the city with regular maintenance performed accordingly. The van has always been titled and driven in Florida, HAS NO RUST WHATSOEVER. The van was originally white and painted black by the city to match the fleet of its police enforcement vehicles. When all the city decals were removed, the van had to be, sanded down, stripped, primed and painted. Therefore you will be getting a car with a new paint job. Additionally, the breaks were redone less than 100 miles ago and are in perfect condition. As you can see from the pictures, the interior (both cabin and rear) are in like new condition. The Adrian Steel cabinets are immaculate and looking like they were never used (all cabinets come with installed locks and keys). The van has 47533 miles (might have a few more miles at the time of purchase, but no more than 30 or so more), has never been in an accident, fender bender or had any bondo or frame work performed. It comes with power windows, power door locks, cruise control, cold A/C and a tow hitch and drives as if new. Anyone who's ever owned an Astro knows the beating the 4.3L V6 engine can take. You'll see these vans running with 200K plus miles all the time. Here's your opportunity to own a low mileage van, perfect for your small business that will last you a long long time. If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact me through eBay.

Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.
Watch this creative way to pull a truck's engine
Fri, 08 Mar 2013Living in an apartment complex has its benefits, but for shade-tree mechanics who like/need to work on their own cars, it definitely has a number of disadvantages. Relatively simple tasks such as brake jobs and oil changes are difficult when you don't have dedicated driveway space, to say nothing of more in-depth repairs... like pulling an engine, for example.
For these types of challenges, a little ingenuity and plenty of muscle are needed to get the job done. Scroll down to watch these four men snatch the V8 out of a Chevrolet K1500 using nothing but a chain, landscape timber and good ol' fashioned brute strength. Good work, gentlemen.
Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards
Fri, 22 Feb 2013The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.
