Finally caught up on the bajillion pages that I missed out on. Glad to see you have continued since the last TR. Been meaning to say I've been lurking since the start and meaning to post, but it's taken 30 pages apparently.
Let's see if I can recall some comments. In regards to the van, we picked up a conversion van to make drives to WDW easier as well. It's about 16 hours depending on how long we take when we drive out and after taking a smaller vehicle a few times, we opted for the full size van (used of course). We spent about a year looking for one (off and on) finally finding one in our price range with low miles: $4200 and on 67K miles! I tried to get the guy to budge on the price a little, but no go. He knew he had a good deal. Most of the ones around here ran that much for over 150K miles on them. It didn't have all the fancy schmancy TV's or DVD players, but who cares? It has been the best purchase to make the trips easier. Plenty of room for luggage, people, and a fully stocked ice chest.

We've only had one problem with it since purchase and that was on our last trip. Seeing as it was a 1997 model, I probably should have replaced or checked some hoses before embarking on a 1000 mile journey without tools, duct tape, or anything of use. One radiator hose sprung a leak in the panhandle of FL. This was where I learned that there were multiple levels of
AAA service for towing. My advice is don't have basic AAA service when you need a 30 mile tow. Guess what we had? :sad2 And sorry to hijack the thread talking about vans which were at least 29 pages ago.
The last few pages of talking about Carsyn reminded me of a video that a friend posted on her facebook for her teenage daughter. It's the dove videos on their site. Hopefully posting the URL isn't some grave error. If so I'll edit and delete it out.

There are others that can be found through any search engine showing more changes than that.
Looking forward to the next installment.
